This will be the second speech of Prime Minister Narendra Modi at UNGA. Earlier in 2014, he addressed the session. In the United Nations, India has always been vocal on different topics. Former Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj gave a stern warning to Pakistan on the Kashmir issue at the 71st session of the UN General Assembly in September 2016. Opposition party leaders also praised Sushma Swaraj.
PM Modi is on a tour of America from 21 September. He first arrived in Houston and addressed the Indian community at the Howdy Modi program. In this program, US President Donald Trump also shared the stage with PM Modi. After Houston, PM Modi arrived in New York where he is attending several bilateral meetings.
