India and Britain will transform their strategic partnership and make the bilateral relationship count as as one of the leading global partnerships, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday.
Addressing the British Parliament, he said India and Britain must seize their opportunities, remove the obstacles to cooperation, instil full confidence in relations and remain sensitive to each other's interests.
"In doing so, we will transform our strategic partnership, and we will make this relationship count as one of the leading global partnerships. Ever so often, in the call of Britain's most famous Bard that we must seize the tide in the affairs of men, the world has sought the inspiration to act. And, so must we," he said.
