A defining moment in India–UK ties! Prime Minister Narendra Modi and UK PM Keir Starmer met in Mumbai to unveil a new roadmap for shared growth — from trade and tech to defence and Diwali. PM Modi announced the opening of India’s nuclear power sector to private players, while both leaders reaffirmed the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), aiming to double bilateral trade before 2030. The partnership now extends to maritime security, missile tech, and zero tolerance against terrorism, including Khalistani extremism. With a £350 million defence deal and strong people-to-people vision, the Modi–Starmer meet has reset the India–UK partnership for a new era of cooperation and trust.
