“A lot has been done under the leadership of PM Modi. He is a patriot of his country. His idea of `Make in India` matters both economic wise and ethics. Future belongs to India, it can be proud of the fact that it`s the largest democracy in the world,” the Kremlin said at Valdai Discussion Club.

He further emphasised ties between India and Russia, calling it a special relationship. “It has been underpinned by a close ally relationship of many decades. We`ve never had any difficult issues and supported each other & that`s happening right now. I`m sure it`ll happen in future,” as per Putin`s statement.
