United Kingdom and India strike £3.2bn clean energy and climate change deal

Speaking at the political rally, the high point of a three-day visit to Britain that has seen 9 billion pounds worth of trade deals signed and revived wilting bilateral relations, Modi praised India's diversity and said the country was working hard to tackle poverty.

"India and the United Kingdom are economically made for each other". Modi added that 18,000 villages in India that are not connected with electricity will get this basic facility within the next 1,000 days. His visit comes at a time when a debate is raging in India over accusations that Modi is failing to rein in Hindu zealots trying to impose their values on all Indians. "The ground covered will transform India-UK ties", he said. To cheers from his audience - the biggest yet at any event hosted by NRIs during the PM's visits overseas - he said, "You are the true ambassadors of India".

The Indian prime minister addressed up to 60,000 people gathered for a huge rally at the home of English football during his three-day visit to Britain.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a direct flight from Ahmedabad to London starting December 15 amid loud cheer from the Indian diaspora at the Wembley Stadium here.

Modi said the world is seeing a changing character of terrorism with "global links, franchise relations, home-grown terrorism and use of cyber space for recruitment and propaganda".

The visiting Prime Minister said "expense by British corporations in India will be a win win relationship for both places", the state statement said.

Modi was introduced to the gathering by British Prime Minister David Cameron, whose wife Samantha, draped in a saree, was also present.

The third photograph was taken on February 25, 1961 and shows Her Majesty riding an elephant in a procession to Balua Ghat in Varanasi, the Prime Minister's parliamentary constituency. "Don't know why we are having fun in luring poverty", he said.

"Our main concern is that minorities are not safe in India", said Sikh protester Kuldip Singh. "We had very good discussions", he said.

He referred to his Government’s initiatives such as ‘Make in India’, emphasis on infrastructure, opening up of FDI in various sectors, and commitment towards 50 million new houses by 2022 and 175 gigawatts of renewable energy.

Protestors had also demonstrated earlier at Downing Street against the Indian PM's visit.
