Australian former Prime Minister Toni Abbott has congratulated Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for becoming the longest-serving premier of his country.
“Congratulations to Narendra Modi on becoming
India’s longest-serving PM. He hasn’t just held office, he’s dramatically
improved his country, with more infrastructure, better IT, and practical things
like power and sanitation extended to remote villages,” Toni said in a Facebook
post.
“Under Modi, India has become the world’s third
superpower while maintaining free elections, a riotously free media and a
robustly independent judiciary,” Toni added.
“But for him, and the late Shinzo Abe, there would
be no Quad so the entire free world owes him a debt of gratitude,” he further said.
