PM Modi pays tribute to ex-PM Lal Bahadur Shastri in Tashkent

PM Narendra Modi paid tribute to former PM Lal Bahadur Shastri in Tashkent and jointly planted a tree with Uzbekistan President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. During his visit, India and Uzbekistan elevated ties and set a $5-billion trade target by 2030. Shastri died in Tashkent in 1966, just hours after signing the historic Tashkent Declaration to end the 1965 India-Pakistan War.
