MODI WELCOMES 'LARGEST' TRADE DELEGATION FROM UK
-
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer yesterday praised the “unparalleled” opportunities in India opening up after London and New Delhi signed a landmark free trade agreement, capping years of intense negotiations.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi welcomed Starmer and what he called “the largest ever trade delegation from the United Kingdom”, saying in a statement that he hoped to bolster their “shared vision of a stronger, mutually prosperous future”.
Starmer, on his first official trip to India, is accompanied by a 125-member delegation that includes top business leaders including British Airways chief executive Sean Doyle.
The two-day visit follows his July meeting with Modi in London, where the pair signed the trade accord.
