 by a loud chair and president, Donald Trump, shaking hands of warm hug, symbolizing the great Indo-American friendship. The aim is to strengthen and deepen the ties further as we see the first lady of the United States of America and both the global leaders reciprocating to the chairs by the spectators. We now request you all to rise for the national anthems. The dynamic, dedicated and determined architect of New India, Honourable Prime Minister Shrinarendra Modi for his welcome remarks. I have started my journey to America. I have been in Houston for a long time. President Donald Trump has been doing his historic journey from Trump. He has reached here directly from America. After such a long journey, President Trump and his family went straight to Savaramati ashram and then came into this process. This is the land of Gujarat, but for the welcome of fire, the passion is of the whole of India. The whole of Gujarat, from the boat to the stadium, the colours of every country are visible. And among all these, President Trump, the first lady, Melania Trump, Ivaka and Jared, the first lady, President Trump, to come here with his family, the Indian-American relations are being recognised as a family and a family. India-USA relations just another partnership. It is a far greater and closer relationship. The name of this event is Namaste. It means it is very deep. It is a word of culture among the ancient languages of the world. It feels as if not only the person, but also the divine within him. For so many wonderful people, I congratulate the people of Gujarat, the people of Gujarat, and the people of other countries. Mr. President, friends, now it is on that land where 5,000 years of old, Planned City is being razed, and so much old, Lothal Seaport is being razed. Today, you are at the tip of the沙vermati river, which is important in India. Today, you are in India filled with diversity, where hundreds of languages are spoken. Hundreds of languages, hundreds of languages are spoken. Our reach diversity, unity in diversity and the vibrancy of unity is a big basis of the strong relationship between India and America. One is land of the free, the other is a family to the whole world. One is proud of the Statue of Liberty. The other is proud of the Statue of Unity of the world's highest leader, Patel. There is so much that we share, shared values and ideals, shared spirit of enterprise and innovation, shared opportunities and challenges, shared hopes and aspirations. I am happy that in the leadership of President Trump, India and America's friendship is deepened. That is why this trip of President Trump is a new lesson of the relations between India and America. It is a lesson that will be a new lesson of progress and prosperity for the people of America and India. Friends, President Trump thinks a lot. And he has done whatever he can to fulfill the American dream. The world knows him very well. Today, we honor the entire Trump family. First lady, Melania Trump, it is a great honor for you to be here. And for happy America, you are getting good results. For children, what you are doing is happiness. You must have experienced that even in today's welcome, people feel the same way. Two years ago, you came to India. You said that you would like to come to India again. I am happy that you are again among us. You are welcome. Your specialty is that you stay away from the limelight. But the effect of what you do is great. It has a negative effect. Whenever I get the chance to meet you, you keep talking about your Indian friends. I am very happy to see you here today. Friends, today, every Indian and American wants to listen to President Trump. After his meeting, I thank him. I will definitely talk to you about something else. I present President Trump to you on behalf of the 130 million Indians. Friends, I present to you my friend, India's friend, the President of the United States of America, Mr. Dolan Trump. Namaste, Trump. Namaste. And hello to India. This is such a great honor. Let me begin by expressing my profound gratitude to an exceptional leader, a great champion of India, a man who works night and day for his country and a man I am proud to call my true friend Prime Minister Modi. The First Lady and I have just traveled 8,000 miles around the globe to deliver a message to every citizen across this nation. America loves India. America respects India. And America will always be faithful and loyal friends to the Indian people. Five months ago, the United States welcomed your great Prime Minister at a giant football stadium in Texas. And today, India welcomes us at the world's largest cricket stadium right here in Amabad. It is a profound honor to be the beautiful new stadium to be here with you. Mo Tara Stadium, so beautiful and joined by so many distinguished guests from all across your nation and all across the world. To the hundreds of thousands of everyday citizens who come out and line the streets in a stunning display of Indian culture and kindness. And to the 125,000 people in this great stadium today. Thank you for the spectacular welcome to your magnificent country. You have done a great honor to the American people. Milani and my family, we will always remember this remarkable hospitality. We will remember it forever. From this day on, India will always hold a very special place in our hearts. The life of Prime Minister Modi underscores the limitless promise of this great nation. He started out by his father's side as a Chihuahua, a tea seller. When he was a young man, he worked at a cafeteria in this city. Everybody loves him, but I will tell you this, he's very tough. Today, Prime Minister Modi is the tremendously successful leader of this vast Indian Republic. Last year, more than 600 million people went to the polls and gave him a landslide victory like no other in the largest democratic election ever held anywhere on the face of the earth. Prime Minister Modi, you are not just the pride of Gujarat. You are living proof that with hard work and devotion, Indians can accomplish anything, anything at all, anything they want. The Prime Minister has a moving story of an incredible rise, and so does this entire nation. Your nation is doing so well. We are very, very proud of India. The story of the Indian nation is a tale of astounding progress, a miracle of democracy, extraordinary diversity, and above all, a strong and noble people. Today, India gives hope to all of humanity. In just 70 years, India has become an economic giant, the largest democracy ever to exist, and one of the most amazing nations anywhere in the world. Since the turn of the century, India's economy has grown more than six times in size. In a single decade, India has lifted over 270 million people out of poverty. Under Prime Minister Modi, for the first time in history, every village in India now has access to electricity. 320 million people, more Indians, are right now connected to the internet. The pace of highway construction has more than doubled. Over 70 million more households, think of this, 70 million more households have access to cooking fuel. 600 million more people have access to basic sanitation, and incredibly 12 Indian citizens are lifted out of extreme poverty every single minute of every single day. India will soon be the home of the biggest middle class anywhere in the world, and within less than 10 years extreme poverty in your country is projected to completely disappear. The potential for India is absolutely incredible. India's rise as a prosperous and independent nation is an example to every nation all over the world and one of the most outstanding achievements of our century. It is all the more inspiring because you have done it as a democratic country, you have done it as a peaceful country, you have done it as a tolerant country, and you have done it as a great free country. There is all the difference in the world between a nation that seeks power through coercion, intimidation and aggression, and a nation that rises by setting its people free and unleashing them to chase their dreams, and that is India. This is why India's accomplishment over the last 70 years is completely unrivaled no matter where you go. It is your faith in the strength of a free society, your confidence in your own people, your trust in your own citizens, and your respect for the dignity of every person that makes the United States and India such a natural, beautiful, enduring friendship. Our nations have many differences. They are both defined and propelled by a fundamental truth, the truth that all of us are blessed with divine light, and every person is endowed with a sacred soul. As the great religious teacher, Swami Vive Kamunand once said, The moment I stand in reference before every human being and see God in him, that moment I am free. In America and in India, we know that we are all born for a higher purpose to reach toward our fullest potential, to work toward excellence and perfection, and to give all glory to God. Powered by this spirit, Indians and Americans are always striving to be greater, our people are always seeking to be better, and so our nations have become thriving centers of culture and commerce and civilization, giving light and vitality to all of the world. This is the country that produces nearly 2,000 movies a year from the hub of genius and creativity known as Bollywood. All over the planet, people take great joy in scenes of Bangra, music dance, romance and drama, and classic Indian films like DDLJ and Shoja. This is the country where your people cheer on some of the world's greatest cricket players, from Tsuchin Tendulkar to Virat Kohli, greatest in the world. This is the country that built the tallest statue on the face of the earth to honor the namesake of this stadium, the great Indian patriot and native of this state, Sardar Patel. This is the country where hundreds of millions of light candles to celebrate the triumph of good over evil at Diwali. At its wear, just days from now, Indians of all faiths will pour out onto the streets to celebrate the beautiful festival of holy. This is a country that proudly embraces freedom, liberty, individual rights, the rule of law and the dignity of every human being. Your nation has always been admired around the earth as the place where millions upon millions of Hindus and Muslims and Sikhs and Jains, Buddhist Christians and Jews worship side by side in harmony, where you speak more than 100 languages and come from more than two dozen states, yet you have always stood strong as one great Indian nation. Humanity is an inspiration to the world. In America we have come to know the splendor of Indian culture personally through the four million Indian Americans living in the United States as our wonderful friends, colleagues and neighbors. They are truly spectacular people. Indian Americans enrich every aspect of our national life. They are titans of business, the biggest, the best, pioneers of science, masters of the art and innovation of technology like few people have been able to see no matter where you go, anywhere in this universe. Nearly one in four Indian Americans trace their roots. Right here in Gujarat is a special place. So on behalf of the entire American people, thank you and thank you all for the contributions your culture and traditions have made to my beloved country. Americans are eager to strengthen these beautiful ties between our two people. This is truly an exciting time in the United States. Our economy is booming like never before. Our people are prospering and spirits are soaring. There is tremendous love, tremendous like. We like and we love everybody. Unemployment has hit historic lows and small business confidence has hit an all-time record high in the history of our country. Our military has been completely rebuilt. It is now stronger than ever before and we are quickly revitalizing our alliances and friendships all around the world. We have spent two and a half trillion dollars on rebuilding our military. It is the most powerful military anywhere in the world by far. That is why I have come here to India in the spirit of fondness and goodwill to expand our cherished partnership of incredible power and potential. The First Lady and I have just had a pleasure of visiting Mahatma Gandhi's ashram a few miles from here where he launched the famous Salt March. And tomorrow in Delhi we will lay a wreath planted tree at Raj Ghat in honor of this leader who was revered all around the world. And the First Lady and I look forward to visiting one of your country's most iconic landmarks. We are later today going to see the majestic Taj Mahal. The Prime Minister and I will also continue our important discussions about how to deepen the relationship between our two great countries. Both of us understand that when leaders put the interests of their own citizens first we can forge strong and fair partnerships to build a safer and more prosperous world. Just months ago this critical partnership took a major step forward when the U.S. military and your brave Indian armed forces conducted the first ever air, land and sea military exercises between our two countries. It was something to behold. We called it Tiger Triumph. As we continue to build our defense cooperation the United States looks forward to providing India with some of the best and most feared military equipment on the planet. We make the greatest weapons ever made. Aeroplanes, missiles, rockets, ships. We make the best and we're dealing now with India. But this includes advanced air defense systems and armed and unarmed aerial vehicles. And I am pleased to announce that tomorrow our representatives will sign deals to sell over three billion dollars in the absolute finest state of the art military helicopters and other equipment to the Indian armed forces. I believe that the United States should be India's premier defense partner and that's the way it's working out. Together we will defend our sovereignty, security and protect a free and open Indo-Pacific region for our children and for many, many generations to come. The United States and India are also firmly united in our ironclad resolve to defend our citizens from the threat of radical Islamic terrorism. Both of our countries have been hurt by the pain and turmoil of terrorism and that terrorism brings. Under my administration we unleashed the full power of the American military on bloodthirsty killers of ISIS in Iraq and in Syria. Today the ISIS territorial caliphate has been 100 percent destroyed and the monster known as al-Baghdadi, the founder and leader of ISIS is dead. In the United States we have also made clear that while our country will always welcome newcomers who share our values and love our people, our borders will always be closed to terrorists and terrorism and to any form of extremism. That is why we have taken historic steps to improve screening and vetting of applications for entry and we are working to ensure that anyone who threatens the security of our citizens is denied admission and will pay a very, very big costly price. Every nation has the right to secure and controlled borders. The United States and India are committed to working together to stop terrorists and to fight their ideology. For this reason since taking office my administration is working in a very positive way with Pakistan to crack down on the terrorist organizations and militants that operate on the Pakistani border. A relationship with Pakistan is a very good one. Thanks to these efforts we are beginning to see signs of big progress with Pakistan and we are hopeful for reduced tensions, greater stability and the future of harmony for all of the nations of South Asia. India has an important leadership role to play in shaping a better future as you take on greater responsibility for solving problems and promoting peace throughout this incredible region. Over the course of my visit Prime Minister Modi and I will also discuss our efforts to expand the economic ties between our two countries. We will be making very, very major among the biggest ever made trade deals. We are in the early stages of discussion for an incredible trade agreement to reduce barriers of investment between the United States and India and I am optimistic that working together the Prime Minister and I can reach a fantastic deal that's good and even great for both of our countries. Except that he's a very tough negotiator. Since my inauguration commerce between our two nations has increased by more than 40%. India is now a major market for American exports and the United States is India's largest export market. A booming America is a great thing for India and it's great for the world and that's why we're so happy to announce that we have had the greatest economy ever in the history of the United States. In America we have proven that the best way to attract jobs and opportunity is to reduce burdens on business, knock down barriers to new investment and eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy, red tape, regulation and taxes. Prime Minister Modi has already made significant reforms here in your country as you very well know. The world looks forward to even more rapid improvement to India's business climate under his leadership. He wants to do it and he's doing it at a record pace. Two years ago Prime Minister Modi warmly welcomed my daughter Ivanka to the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in Hyderabad and she is back with us today Ivanka. Thank you. Thank you for being here. We are delighted to be joined as well by dozens of Indian women entrepreneurs who are helping to build your nation's future. They are great and natural entrepreneurs and I just say to the men be very careful. They're really good. The United States and India are also working closely together on the future of space exploration. You are making impressive strides with your exciting Chandra's Yan Lunar program. It is moving along rapidly far ahead of schedule. And America looks forward to expanding our space cooperation within the as you push even further. You are pushing the limits and that's a great thing, including in the realm of human spaceflight. The United States and India will be friends and partners on our voyage into the stars and into space. It is truly extraordinary what this nation has achieved in the span of just one lifetime and what they have done under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi. It is absolutely incredible. Mr. Prime Minister, congratulations. You have come so far, but it is nothing compared to with how far India will go into the future and the Prime Minister is laying the foundations for a future like few other countries can even think of. This nation is blessed with many treasures from the sacred banks of the Ganges to the Golden Temple and the Jama Masjid. It is the home to some of the most cherished cultural heritage anywhere on earth. It is also the land of stunning vistas and astounding natural wonders from the rugged peaks of the Himalayas to the splendid shores of Goa. And India has always been a wellspring of deep wisdom and great ideas from the Vestas and the ancient epics all the way to the modern India nation. But standing before all of you today, I know that true strength of India is not found in its textbooks, its landmarks, or its landscapes. The true strength of India is found in 125,000 beating hearts in the stadium and the millions and millions of people who have seen and witnessed our great friendship and admiration today. It is all found in the soul and the spirit of the Indian people. Your courage won and secured this nation's independence. Your devotion built this great and enduring democracy. And it is your dreams that will power this country to a future even greater progress, prosperity, equality, and opportunity for every citizen across your land. So today I say to every Indian, North and South, Hindu and Muslim, Jewish and Christian, rich and poor, young and old, take pride in the glories of your past, unite for an even brighter future, and let our two nations always stand together as powerful defenders of peace and liberty and the hope of a better world for all of humanity. Thank you again Prime Minister Modi for your hospitality and thank you India for this phenomenal welcome. I want to just leave by saying God bless India, God bless the United States of America. We love you, we love you India very much. Thank you. I want to just leave by saying thank you India, God bless the United States of America. I want to just leave by saying thank you India, God bless the United States of America. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. Thank you India. So that is the country of America. Today, the country with which India's most successful research and development partnership is, that is the country of America. Today, whether it is defense, energy sector, health, information technology, our relationship is growing in every area. In this decade of 21st century, New India resurgent America's bills have also brought many new opportunities. In every area of development, there is a lot to get from both countries. To increase manufacturing in India, to expand infrastructure, there will be a new opportunity for America. In this era of Industry 4.0, there will be many opportunities to expand digital economy in India. Mr. President, In the past 10 years, in the digital economy, it is very important to shape the relations between India and America. India's talent and America's technology has given new leadership to this area. And I believe that in the 21st century, India and America together, it is the strength of this digital industry 4.0. Friends, in the 21st century, new alignment, new competition, new challenges, and new opportunities, there is a lot to get from both countries. In this way, the relationship between India and America and the direction of the 20th century of cooperation will be of great importance. I am sure that India and America are a natural partner. We are not only in Indo-Pacific region, but the peace, progress and security will be of great importance to India. To defeat terrorism, America's commitment and President Trump's leadership have served humanity. And that is why I believe that President Trump as a leader and a friend of India, in the beginning of this decade, India is a great opportunity. In the past, we have begun to strengthen the relations between India and America. And with this visit, the next phase is starting. We are inspired from a long-term vision. Not just from short-term considerations. Our bilateral relations will grow. Our economic partnership will be established. Our digital cooperation will grow. And I am sure that we will overcome new heights. We will fulfill the dreams of the United States and the dreams of the United States. Today, I am fortunate that I have the opportunity to welcome President Trump and his entire family. Once again, I welcome President Trump. I would like to congratulate all of you. Friendship of India's mother. U.S. Friendship reverberates the new Muteira Stadium. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on behalf of 1.3 billion people, welcomed President Donald Trump and said that he is very happy that the family is here. Thank the first lady, Melania Trump.
