Prime Minister Narendra Modi thanked US President Donald Trump for his Diwali greetings, saying that India and the US should “illuminate the world with hope.” In his message on X, Modi added that the two democracies must stand united against terrorism in all forms. His post came a day after Trump celebrated Diwali at the White House and claimed he had spoken to Modi about trade issues. During the celebration, Trump lit a traditional brass lamp and praised the festival’s message of light over darkness and good over evil. Modi’s reply emphasized friendship and shared values.
