Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday became the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Ghana in three decades. A heartfelt video has surfaced showing a group of Ghanaian children greeting PM Modi with chants of "Hare Rama Hare Krishna", holding Indian and Ghanaian flags in their hands as he arrived at a hotel in Accra. Members of the Indian diaspora were also present. Ghana is the first leg of PM Modi's five-nation tour.

“I look forward to opening new avenues of cooperation in investment, energy, health, security, and development partnership,” PM Modi said in a departure statement, adding that addressing Ghana’s Parliament would be a great honour as both nations are vibrant democracies.

More than 15,000 Indians reside in the West African nation of Ghana, with some families having lived there for more than 7 decades. Many are now in their fourth generation, and some have even acquired Ghanaian citizenship.

From Ghana, PM Modi will continue his multi-nation tour with visits to Trinidad and Tobago (July 3–4), Argentina (July 4–5), Brazil for the 17th BRICS summit, and Namibia, in a bid to strengthen India’s global engagement.
