Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to X on October 9 to share a candid picture with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer seated together in a car en route to the Global Fintech Fest in Mumbai. Modi captioned the photo, “India-UK friendship is on the move and is filled with great vigour! A picture from earlier today, when my friend PM Starmer and I began our journey to attend the Global Fintech Fest.” The car ride comes amid Starmer’s two-day visit to India, accompanied by over 100 leaders from Britain’s business, cultural, and academic sectors. The visit underscores the momentum following the India-UK trade deal signed in July, which aims to cut tariffs on goods ranging from textiles to whisky and expand market access for businesses in both economies.
