Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday congratulated Canadian PM Mark Carney on the victory of his Liberal Party in federal elections and said "he was looking forward to strengthening bilateral ties and unlocking greater opportunities for people of the two nations."

Carney, an economist and political newcomer, led the Liberal Party to its remarkable victory in the elections held under the shadow of US President Donald Trump's tariff clash. This is the Liberal Party's fourth victory since 2015. In his congratulatory message, Modi said India and Canada are bound by shared democratic values and a "steadfast commitment" to the rule of law.

"Congratulations @MarkJCarney on your election as the Prime Minister of Canada and to the Liberal Party on their victory," Modi said in a social media post. "India and Canada are bound by shared democratic values, a steadfast commitment to the rule of law, and vibrant people-to-people ties," he said.
