One of the most important days in the history of the United States of America, the US presidential elections are always a topic that affects everything and everyone. This election saw Donald Trump snatching the win from his opponent Kamala Harris as he becomes the 47th US President.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to social media and extended congratulatory wishes to Trump, calling him a 'friend.' On Wednesday, the PM joined the list of leaders who extended their best wishes to the new President of the United States.

Modi took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and wrote, 'Heartiest congratulations, my friend @realDonaldTrump, on your historic election victory. As you build on the successes of your previous term, I look forward to renewing our collaboration to further strengthen the India-US Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership."


"Together, let's work for the betterment of our people and to promote global peace, stability, and prosperity,' he further added.

Strong diplomatic ties, common goals, strategic cooperation, and evident personal camaraderie have strengthened the two leaders' bond. Narendra Modi and Donald Trump's friendship was showcased in massive events like "Howdy Modi!" in Houston in 2019 and "Namaste Trump" in Ahemdabad in 2020, where the two addressed a huge crowd and conveyed their mutual admiration.
