'Terrific response' for Modi's Shanghai speech on China visit

April 29, 2015 01:15

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Madison Square-style event in Shanghai during his upcoming visit to China has generated a 'terrific response' from Indian professionals and students based in various cities in the Communist nation.

Modi plans to give a speech in Shanghai similar to the one at New York's Madison Square Garden last year on his US visit.

This will be the first time an Indian leader has attempted such an event in China which until recently had very few Indians.

From across China there has been a 'terrific response' for the prime minister's event being organised by the Indian community on May 16, a social media message by the Indian Association of Shanghai said, ahead of the last day for registration tomorrow.
