Doha, Feb 15 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday thanked Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani for the release of eight Indians, previously on death row, even as the two leaders held extensive talks that set the stage for taking the bilateral ties to a higher level, especially in the spheres of investment, energy and new technology.
After the talks at the majestic Amiri Palace in this Qatari capital city, Modi described his meeting with the Emir as “wonderful” and said the bilateral ties are growing “stronger and stronger” and both the nations are looking forward to collaborating in futuristic sectors that will benefit the planet.
Modi arrived here last night from the United Arab Emirates in his second visit to Qatar which came days after Doha released the Indians in a major relief to New Delhi.
