“Africa and India are two bright spots of hope and opportunities in the global economy,” Modi said in his speech to the heads of 54 African countries at the India-Africa Forum Summit.

The Prime Minister also emphasised on the importance of youth and said that it “something precious that unites us”.
“Two third of India and Africa is under the age of 35. And, if the future belongs to the youth, then this century is ours to shape and build,” he said.
“It is not just a meeting of India and Africa. Today, the dreams of one-third of humanity have come together under one roof. Fabric of this world is richer because of the 54 sovereign flags of Africa,” he said.
