Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been treated to one of France’s most spectacular accolades as guest of honour at the Bastille Day military parade, part of a visit that has sealed high-profile defence deals.
Modi and President Emmanuel Macron on Friday watched French and Indian soldiers march down the tree-lined Champs Elysees avenue in Paris, while French-made Rafale fighter jets India bought in 2015 took part in a flypast over the Arc de Triomphe.
