Saudi King makes congratulatory phone call to PM Modi

New Delhi: Lauding Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his electoral performance, Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud gave a congratulatory phone call to the Indian leader on Friday.

This comes as the BJP and its allies won the 2019 Lok Sabha elections with a resounding mandate, paving way for PM Modi to continue for a second term.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman also extended his greetings to PM Modi on Friday.

Thanking the two leaders, PM Modi tweeted: “Thank you, Your Majesty @KingSalman and Your Highness Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for heartfelt greetings. India cherishes deep-rooted and multi-faceted ties with the Kingdom. Look forward to further enhancing our relations for the benefit of our citizens.”

Wishes have been pouring in for the BJP stalwart ever since it became clear that the party along with its allies had secured a thumping majority in the latest Indian General Elections.
