New Delhi/IBNS: Italy Prime Minister Georgia Meloni wished India on its 78th Independence Day.

The Italian Prime Minister shared a picture of her on social media platform X with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said, India and Italy's "strategic partnership is an important pillar for the future."

"On the occasion of the 78th Independence Day, I would like to express my heartfelt wishes to the people of India, and especially to the many Indians who follow this page," Meloni said.

"Italy and India share an ever-stronger bond, and I am confident that together we will achieve great things. Our strategic partnership is an important pillar for the future," she added.

Thanking PM Meloni for her wishes, Modi said: "May the India-Italy friendship keep growing and contributing towards a better planet."

During the G7 summit in May, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held bilateral talks with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

PM Modi arrived in Italy at the invitation of Prime Minister Meloni to participate in the G7 Outreach summit. This was his first foreign trip after becoming prime minister for the third term earlier this month.
