Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 24 (ANI): Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Tuesday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi following his three-day visit to the United States, stating that the visit once again demonstrated why the PM is a distinguished global statesman and a trendsetter of exceptional merit.

Taking to his social media handle on X, Shinde posted, “PM Narendra Modi Ji’s USA visit has shown once again why he is a global statesman and trendsetter par excellence. In a short visit, he has been able to cover many sectors, which will strengthen India’s journey to progress. As Indians, we feel very proud to see when our Prime Minister is welcomed especially by American President Biden to his personal residence and school.”

“I welcome the engagement with tech and business leaders. Maharashtra has a robust interaction with many of these people and PM’s efforts to draw investments will naturally benefit our state.
