Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said the Indian diaspora in Japan consider his huge victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls as "a win for honesty".
With 61 crore people casting their ballots, the number of voters who participated in India's general elections exceeded the population of almost all countries, barring China, he told an enthusiastic Indian community in Kobe amidst chanting of "Bharat Mata ki jai" and "Jai Shree Ram'.
After the event concluded, Modi tweeted, "Had a wonderful community programme in Kobe...Interacting with the Indian diaspora is always special."
