This will be the first time an Indian PM has visited the UK in a decade and will be speaking to the largest Indian diaspora outside of India.
British PM David Cameron has noted that “very few world leaders” can draw a crowd big enough to fill the 90,000 seat Wembley stadium.
The event’s website says, “UKWelcomesModi pays tribute to the deep ties between India and the UK, highlighting the formidable contribution made by members of the Indian diaspora in all walks of British life. Prime Minister Modi’s already iconic leadership has made waves across the world. UKWeclomesModi is honoured to host this new global visionary who will give us a glimpse of India in years to come as it forges new paradigm of growth and success for not just Asia, but the rest of the world too.”
The location of Wembley is also of relevance as its religious demographic is majority Hindu.
The event is scheduled for Friday the 13th at the iconic Wembley Stadium.
The deadline to register for the free event ended on Friday at Midnight.
