Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday had a telephonic conversation with his Britain counterpart Theresa May and expressed India's solidarity and conveyed deepest condolences for victims of the terror attack in London.

"PM called UK PM H.E. @theresa_may to express India's solidarity & conveyed deepest condolences for victims of the terror attack in London," Prime Minister's Office tweeted.

Condemning the terror attack outside the Houses of Parliament in London, Prime Minister Modi yesterday said India stands with the United Kingdom in the fight against terrorism.

Prime Minister Modi tweeted, "Deeply saddened by the terror attack in London. Our thoughts & prayers are with the victims and their families."

"At this difficult moment, India stands with UK in the fight against terrorism," he said in another tweet.

As many as four people were dead and 40 others injured after a terrorist attacked Westminster, stabbing a police officer to death as he tried to storm the Parliament, and killing three members of the public as he careered through the heart of the capital in a 4x4 vehicle, according to the Guardian.

The man believed to have been responsible for the terrorist attack in Westminster has been identified as 52-year-old Khalid Masood.
