Prime Minister Narendra Modi will shortly arrive at the Facebook headquarters for a Townhall Q & A (Question and Answering) session here on Sunday.

Prime Minister Modi will meet Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and both will take part in a session in a short while from now.

A number of people from all walks of life are likely to be present at the Menlo Park headquarters of online social networking website Facebook.

The event is being projected as one of the exciting events in Minister Modi's five-day visit to the United States.

Meanwhile, Zuckerberg has voiced a strong support for the Digital India initiated by Prime Minister Modi's government in his Facebook post.

"Looking forward to discussing this with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Facebook today," Zuckerberg had earlier said in a Facebook post.

"I'll host Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a Townhall Q&A at Facebook HQ, where I'm looking forward to having a conversation about what connectivity means for India's future," Zuckerberg wrote in a post on Facebook.
