Two books on PM Narendra Modi were released by Lok Sabha Speaker and first copies were handed over to President Pranab Mukherjee. While addressing a gathering, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said that India was looking for decisive leadership in 2014. Appreciating the Prime Minister for Mann Ki Baat, he said, “Over the years the radio saw decline. But it was the PM who spotted the strength of the radio as a medium. The Prime Minister uses the radio to directly communicate with the people.”
PM Modi arrived in Paris, France, to a warm welcome by the Indian diaspora.

During the visit, PM Modi will attend the VivaTech 2026 alongside President Macron. India will have the largest national pavilion at this edition, a fitting symbol of the enormous potential for partnership between Indian and European innovation ecosystems. The PM will also meet the members of the vibrant Indian community in Paris.
