Ayubowan! Namaste!
I am very pleased to be here in New Delhi, undertaking my first official visit abroad since assuming office as the Prime Minister.
Prime Minister Modi and I discussed several important issues this morning. Our discussions were premised on the outcome of the discussions that Prime Minister Modi held with President Gotabaya Rajapaksa during his very successful State Visit to India in November of last year.
