Kuwait City, Dec 22 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Sunday, received a ceremonial Guard of Honour at Bayan Palace, Kuwait, in the presence of Kuwaiti Prime Minister Mohammed Sabah Al-Salem Al-Sabah.
The occasion marked a significant moment in PM Modi’s two-day visit to the Gulf nation, the first by an Indian Prime Minister in 43 years.
PM Modi is set to hold separate high-level meetings with the Amir of Kuwait, Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, and the Crown Prince of Kuwait.

Prime Minister Modi arrived in Kuwait on Saturday afternoon, receiving a grand welcome upon his arrival. This visit, at the invitation of the Amir of Kuwait, is expected to elevate India’s already robust ties with Gulf nations to greater heights.
Soon after landing, PM Modi visited a labour camp in the Mina Abdullah area, where he interacted with a cross-section of Indian workers. He enquired about their well-being and highlighted several welfare schemes initiated by the Indian government over the past decade.
