Vietnam National Assembly President Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan on Friday called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who said the bilateral Agreement on Cooperation in Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy, which is being signed today, will further strengthen the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between India and Vietnam.

Describing Ngan, the first woman to head the National Assembly of Vietnam, as a "source of inspiration" to women across the world, the Prime Minister also recalled their earlier meeting in Hanoi during his visit to Vietnam in September.

He also welcomed increased Parliamentary interactions between India and Vietnam and called for instituting an exchange programme for young parliamentarians of the two countries.
