UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer will visit India on October 8-9. He will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and attend the Global Fintech Fest 2025 in Mumbai. The two leaders will review progress on the India-UK free trade agreement, which is expected to boost trade by $35 billion. Talks will also cover defence, technology, climate, and migration. India is likely to raise issues of terrorism, pro-Khalistan groups, and the return of fugitives. Starmer’s trip follows Modi’s visit to the UK in July, where both sides signed the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement. (PC: @MEAIndia X/ File)
