Over 160 Indian American organisations in Silicon Valley, reflecting various sections of the highly diversified ethnic community, are planning a reception to welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi in September during his visit to the world-famous technology hub.
About 400 representatives from 160 diverse Indian American organisations attended a meeting in Silicon Valley yesterday which was organised by the recently formed Indo-American Community of West Coast (IACWC) which has been mandated with the task of uniting all organisations for the purpose of planning the historic event.
“There are three main prongs to Prime Minister Modi’s overall goals: unity, security, and prosperity. He has been working night and day to ensure the presence of all three,” Madhav said in an address to the Indian American community.
These community events all around the world not only help the Prime Minister communicate his objectives to a larger audience, but they also help create the unity he seeks, said Madhav.
Khanderao Kand, IACWC spokesperson, said tickets to the prime minister’s event are free.
In order to manage the high demand to hear Modi speak at the SAP Centre, all partnering organisations shall register through the website.
Majority of passes will be distributed through the partnering organisations, he said. “We understand that the IACWC is a platform through which we must bring together the entire community, regardless of language, culture, religion or profession,” Kand said.
In his remarks Sandhu stressed the importance of this event in the eyes of the world. “With unity comes political strength, and with political strength, the future belongs to India,” he said.
