PM Modi Lands in Australia, Gets Grand Diaspora Welcome, Trade and Defence Talks Ahead

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi landed in Australia on Wednesday, receiving a warm welcome from the Indian diaspora. He is scheduled to address a highly anticipated mega diaspora gathering of approximately 30,000 attendees at Marvel Stadium on Thursday, July 9.

The visit will focus on strengthening bilateral ties, with trade and defence talks high on the agenda. Modi's arrival marks the first leg of his three-nation tour, which also includes stops in other countries.

The diaspora event at Marvel Stadium is expected to be one of the largest gatherings of the Indian community in Australia. Organizers have been preparing for weeks to accommodate the massive crowd, reflecting the strong ties between India and its overseas community.
