Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in New York on Tuesday on the first leg of his maiden state visit to the US during which he will lead the International Yoga Day event at the United Nations Headquarters and hold bilateral talks with President Joe Biden. He was welcomed by a group of Indian community members in America, with national flag in their hands, outside the airport. Visuals showed the Prime Minister shaking hands with a few of the members as they chanted 'Modi, Modi' slogans.
