Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Melbourne Tuesday on the fourth and last leg on his five-day Australian tour.
Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott will host a reception for Modi at the iconic 161-year-old Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) later in the evening.
Modi was in Brisbane for the G20, then for a six-hour visit to Sydney from where he flew to Canberra.
Melbourne is the last stop in his Australian itinerary. Modi will leave for Fiji in the night for a day-long visit to conclude his 10-day three-nation tour.
