Great to have hosted our first Roundtable on UK-India affairs, chaired by @Lord_Bilimoria, with guest speaker @NITIAayog’s Mr Suman Bery. Held under the Chatham House Rule, many topical issues were discussed, ranging from gender to geopolitics. @HCI_London @Baroness_Verma

Manmohan Singh, India's first Sikh Prime Minister and Finance Minister, helped lay the foundations for India's prosperity.
He helped *eradicate* extreme poverty in India.
Personally, he has been an inspiration for me and I am deeply saddened by his death.
India mourns the loss of one of its most distinguished leaders, Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji. Rising from humble origins, he rose to become a respected economist. He served in various government positions as well, including as Finance Minister, leaving a strong imprint on our economic policy over the years. His interventions in Parliament were also insightful. As our Prime Minister, he made extensive efforts to improve people’s lives.

It was great to meet the @britishcouncil India today. We discussed exciting new opportunities for our young people across both countries and I came to know about the incredible work the team are doing re Sustainable Textiles 🪡👕
PS: Did you know Leicester was named the second richest city in Europe in the 1930s due to our Textile industry? 🧶🧦

A real honour to read the Kohima Epitaph at #RemembranceSunday in Delhi today. Poignant words from a brutal Indian battlefield 80 years ago, used in every memorial service across the UK, and at so many @CWGC memorials today. ‘When you go home, tell them of us and say: for your tomorrow, we gave our today.’ We will remember them.
