Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Georgetown on a State Visit to Guyana from 20-21 November 2024. This is the first visit by an Indian Prime Minister to Guyana in 56 years.

Offering the mantra of ‘Democracy First, Humanity First’ for global good, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that space and sea should be subjects of “universal cooperation”, not universal conflict.

In his address at a Special Session of Parliament of Guyana here, Modi also said India has “never moved forward with selfishness, expansionist attitude”, and it has always been away from harbouring any feeling of seizing resources.

“I believe that space and sea should be subjects of universal cooperation, not universal conflict,” PM Modi said.

In his remarks, PM Modi termed the India-Guyana ties of ‘mitti’ (soil) as full of cordiality, referring to their cultural ties of over a century and a half.
