Optimism about India the common thread during my US visit,

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said optimism about India was the common thread that emerged during his high-profile meetings during his US tour last week and noted the Indian community has made a mark for itself globally in science and technology.

In his address at the 56th Convocation of IIT-Madras here, he said the graduating students were passing out at a time "when the the world is looking at India as a land of unique opportunities."
And many who were powering this "are your IIT seniors," he said adding "you are making brand India stronger globally."
