''One is 'land of the free' the other believes the world is one family. One feels proud of 'statue of liberty' the other feels proud of 'statue of unity''', he said while addressing the Namaste Trump event at Motera stadium
Welcoming Trump, he said ''You are heartily welcome in the largest democracy of the world. The entire country is enthusiastic in welcoming you''.
Referring to Namaste Trump event, Modi said history was being repeated.
