"Today, there is India's wave, and it is because of PM Modi... No matter where one wants to reach in the world, they have to go via India... Everyone tries to take a photo with PM Modi. It fills us with pride," he said.
"We have seen under his leadership that he solves issues for his people, not just within the country but also for the Indian community abroad," he added.
