New Delhi [India], July 4 (ANI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday greeted US President Joe Biden on the occasion of America’s 245th Independence Day.

“Warm felicitations and greetings to @POTUS @Joe Biden and the people of the USA on their 245th Independence Day. As vibrant democracies, India and the USA share values of freedom and liberty. Our strategic partnership has a truly global significance,” tweeted Prime Minister Modi.

It is to mention that July 4 commemorates the passage of the Declaration of Independence by the 13 colonies of the US in 1776.
