PM Modi: I think today we can see history being repeated. 5 months back I started my US trip with ‘Howdy Modi’ and today my friend President Donald Trump is starting his Indian trip with ‘Namaste Trump’ here in Ahmedabad

PM Narendra Modi: You are heartily welcome in the largest democracy of the world. This is Gujarat but the entire country is enthusiastic in welcoming you

PM Narendra Modi: The meaning of the name of this event – ‘Namaste’ is very deep. This is a word from the oldest languages of the world – Sanskrit. It means that we pay respect to not only to the person but also to the divinity inside him.

PM Modi: India-US relations are no longer just another partnership. It is a far greater and closer relationship. One is ‘land of the free’ the other believes the world is one family. One feels proud of ‘statue of liberty’ the other feels proud of ‘statue of unity’

PM Narendra Modi: First Lady Melania, your presence here is an honour for us. The work you did for healthy and happy America is yielding its result. The work you did for children and the society is commendable.
