As different parts of the country celebrate Ganesh festival, and Durga Puja and Diwali approach, he said people should never forget about "swadeshi" products during the festivals, be it in purchasing gifts, clothes, decor items or anything else.

PM Modi holds talks with Chinese President Xi ahead of key SCO summit

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Sunday held bilateral talks against the backdrop of Washington's tariff tussle that has impacted almost all leading economies across the world. Modi landed in China on Saturday on a two-day visit that came after a gap of seven years. In the talks, the two leaders are expected to take stock of India-China economic ties and deliberate on steps to further normalise relations that came under severe strain following the eastern Ladakh border row. Modi is in China primarily to attend the two-day annual summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) beginning Sunday.

Trump 'no longer has plans' to visit India for Quad Summit, reports NYT

US President Donald Trump no longer has plans to visit India later this year for the Quad Summit, The New York Times claimed on Saturday, as it detailed how relations between the American leader and Prime Minister Narendra Modi unraveled over the last few months. In the report titled 'The Nobel Prize and a Testy Phone Call: How the Trump-Modi Relationship Unraveled', the NYT, citing people familiar with Trump's schedule, said that After telling Mr Modi that he would travel to India later this year for the Quad summit, Mr Trump no longer has plans to visit in the fall. There was no official comment from either the US or India on the NYT's claim. India will host leaders of Australia, Japan and the US for the Quad Summit, scheduled to be held in New Delhi around November.
