Addressing the Indian diaspora in Vienna, PM Modi said that India is working towards being the best, the brightest, achieving the biggest and reaching the highest milestones.
Describing his first visit to Austria as “meaningful”, PM Modi said that after 41 years, an Indian Prime Minister has visited the country. “This long wait has come to an end on a historic occasion. India and Austria are celebrating 75 years of their friendship,” he said.
“India and Austria are geographically on two different ends, but we have many similarities. Democracy connects both the countries. Our shared values are liberty, equality, pluralism, and respect for the rule of law. Our societies are multicultural and multilingual. Both countries celebrate diversity, and a big medium to reflect these values are elections,” he said, amid chants of ‘Modi, Modi’.
More than 31,000 Indians are living in Austria. The Indian diaspora mainly consists of professionals working in the health-care and other sectors and in multilateral UN bodies. There are around 500 Indian students pursuing higher education in Austria.
