New York: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday received a rousing welcome by the members of the Indian community here. He is in the US to participate in the United Nations summit on development and give a boost to his 'Make in India' and 'Digital India' programmes.
Arriving at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, he stepped out of his vehicle and greeted at least 500 people, waiting for him with drummers and dancers, and waved to them. Secret Service agents ran around him, trying to set up a cordon as the crowds surged and Modi tried to get closer to it.
