🇮🇳-🇬🇧| Deepening the business & investment connection.
PM @narendramodi & PM @Keir_Starmer met with business leaders from 🇮🇳 and 🇬🇧 following the signing of the historic India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement [CETA]. Leading Industry captains from both sides from various sectors were present in the meeting.
Both leaders encouraged them to realise the full potential of opportunities flowing from the CETA for deepening trade, investment and innovation partnerships.
Highlighting the tangible benefits of the CETA, the two leaders walked through a showcase featuring an impressive line-up of flagship products & innovations from both nations. The exhibits included gems and jewellery, engineering goods, quality consumer products & advanced technological solutions.
A powerful evening of truth, cinema, and real-life drama!
Thank you Prakash Jha (film director and producer) & Neeraj Kumar (former Commissioner of Delhi police) for an unforgettable discussion on Khaki, Gangsters & Cinema.
