Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to the joint sitting of the US Congress today flagged not only the shared values of democracy, equality and diversity shared by the two nations, but also flagged India's fast-growing economy, rapid progress from colonial days and women's contribution to it. He also spoke of the country's rapid digitisation, its commitment to environment and its culture of "sharing our modest resources with countries that need it the most". Democracy, PM Modi said, is one of the "sacred shared values" of India and the US and drew parallels from the two countries that brought the House to its feet several times. "In the past few years, there have been many advances in Al - Artificial Intelligence. At the same time, there have been even more momentous developments in another Al - America and India," he said to a standing ovation.
