Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrapped up a busy day in Tokyo on Tuesday with an interaction with the Indian community in Japan.

PM Modi urged Indians to work for their country and use what it takes to spread the message back home. "So if you write to your folks back in India... I know you don't write letters anymore... You must be connected on WhatsApp or have made friends on Twitter, it is important to get the message across, no matter what the medium," he said, speaking about a "Clean India" mission to honour Mahatma Gandhi.
