Addressing the India-Japan Joint Economic Forum in Tokyo, PM Modi highlighted how the partnership has become a “symbol of mutual trust,” spanning sectors from metro projects to manufacturing, semiconductors, and start-ups.

During his two-day visit to Japan, PM Modi held summit talks with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba to expand bilateral ties in trade, investment, and emerging technologies. The two leaders are set to release a joint statement along with the “2035 Vision Statement”, upgrading the 2025 roadmap announced a decade ago with former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

Marking 20 years of the annual India-Japan summit mechanism, this year’s meeting reflects the growing strategic and economic convergence between the two nations. Former Japanese Prime Ministers Yoshihide Suga and Fumio Kishida also called on PM Modi, underscoring the depth of Japan’s bipartisan commitment to strengthening ties with India.
