Addressing the Heads of (diplomatic) Missions (HoMs) on the last day of a five-day conference, organised by External Affairs Ministry, Modi said, "We have entered a new era of diplomatic engagement, we must adapt to deliver more to meet India's aspirations."
Highlights of Prime Minister's address to the envoys were tweeted by MEA Spokesperson Vikas Swarup.
Asserting that India's profile has grown exponentially, Modi said,"We must match our steps with the world."

The five-day conference discussed various issues relating to foreign policy, government's flagship programmes and India's economic and trade relations with various countries.
