1:35Now PlayingIndian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is in Australia for a 2-day visit to hold talks with his counterpart Anthony Albanese and business leaders.
Thousands of expatriate Indians thronged Australia’s largest entertainment and sporting arena in Sydney to welcome Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his first visit in nine years.
The fans came from across the country — on chartered flights from Melbourne dubbed “Modi Airways” where a one-way ticket cost A$249 ($165.17) and on the “Modi Express” coach from Canberra and Brisbane. Tuesday’s donations-funded event was held at the Qudos Bank Arena — the same venue where the Backstreet Boys performed in March and Sam Smith and Lizzo will take the stage later this year.
Cheers of “Modi, Modi” filled the sprawling arena as the Indian leader entered alongside Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
“India-Australia relations are based on mutual trust and respect,” Modi said in his speech. “That is because of this strong diaspora, because of you.”
