Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has begun a landmark three-day visit to Poland and Ukraine, marking a significant moment in diplomatic history. This visit to Poland is the first by an Indian Prime Minister in 45 years, since Morarji Desai’s visit to Warsaw in 1979. The timing is particularly notable as it aligns with the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between India and Poland.
During his stay in Poland, PM Modi received a warm and culturally significant welcome. Polish and Indian artists performed a traditional Garba dance routine at the Warsaw hotel where the Prime Minister is staying. This unique cultural exchange highlighted the growing bond between the two nations and offered a vibrant start to the visit.
