Modi's Australian Visit Sparks Excitement and Controversy.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a rally of thousands of overseas Indians in Sydney, Australia, as part of his first visit to the country since 2014. The event was aimed at boosting support for Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party ahead of next year's general election in India. Modi is known for his large-scale rallies during overseas trips, and has previously addressed packed stadiums in the UK and US. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese also attended the event, and the two leaders will hold a bilateral meeting to discuss trade, investment, renewable energy, and defence and security cooperation.
