PM Modi’s trip to Vienna holds historical significance as it will be the first visit by an Indian Prime Minister in over four decades. The last Indian PM to visit Austria was Indira Gandhi in 1983.
Scheduled as a one-day official visit, this trip is particularly momentous as India and Austria commemorate 75 years of diplomatic relations, highlighting the longstanding ties between the two nations.
