The Prime Minister began his two-day State Visit to Uzbekistan with a special welcome from Mirziyoyev, who personally travelled to Tashkent airport to receive him.
PM Modi thanked the Uzbek President for the gesture and said his fourth visit to Uzbekistan reflected the growing momentum in bilateral ties.
During the visit, PM Modi will likely hold delegation-level talks with President Mirziyoyev.
Discussions are expected to cover trade and investment, digital connectivity, defence and energy, as well as the shared development goals of Viksit Bharat 2047 and Uzbekistan-2030.
PM Modi had earlier said the India-Uzbekistan Strategic Partnership had advanced significantly in recent years. He will likely visit the Shastri Memorial and the Mahatma Gandhi Centre at Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies, highlighting the longstanding cultural and people-to-people links between the two countries.
