Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India and Belgium are working together on modern defence equipment, citing the indigenous Zorawar light tank as an example, after holding delegation-level talks with Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever in New Delhi on Thursday.
De Wever is on a three-day official visit to India at Modi's invitation, his first trip to the country as Belgian premier and the first visit by a Belgian prime minister to India in nearly two decades. He is accompanied by Belgium's Minister of Defence and Foreign Trade, Theo Francken, along with a delegation of officials, business leaders and representatives from the Belgian defence industry.
