— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) July 9, 2024“The song was once sung in every household here, ‘Sir pe lal topi Russi, phir bhi dil hai Hindustani.’ This song may have become old, but the sentiments are ever-green. Artists like Raj Kapoor , Mithoon Da have strengthened the friendship between India and Russia…The strength of our relations has been tested many times and every time our friendship has emerged stronger. I would especially like to appreciate the leadership of my dear friend, President Putin. He has done a wonderful job to strengthen this partnership for more than 2 decades. This is the sixth time I have come to Russia in the last 10 years and in these years we have met each other 17 times. All these meetings have increased trust and respect. When our students were stuck in the conflict, President Putin helped us in getting them back to India. I once again thank the people of Russia and my friend, President Putin…” said PM Modi at the Indian diaspora in Moscow before participating in the India-Russia annual summit.
Modi also spoke about India’s T20 World Cup victory under the leadership of Rohit Sharma and said, “Just recently, everyone celebrated the victory of the T20 World Cup. We are all feeling proud. Winning the World Cup is also a journey of victory. Today’s youth of India doesn’t accept defeat until the last ball and the last moment, and victory kisses the feet of those who are not ready to accept defeat.”
