On Saturday, PM Modi had congratulated Albanese on his "resounding victory" and re-election as Prime Minister of Australia.
PM Modi had said that he looked forward to working together to further deepen the India-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.

This emphatic mandate indicates the enduring faith of the Australian people in your leadership. I look forward to working together to further deepen the India-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership and advance our shared vision for peace, stability and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific."
Albanese is the first Prime Minister in more than two decades to secure back-to-back election victories, the first since John Howard, Al Jazeera reported.
Speaking to cheering supporters at the Labor Party's headquarters on Saturday, he said the government will invest in young Australians while looking after the older people, as well. He also spoke about the resilience of the economy and about a unified Australia.
"In this time of global uncertainty, Australians have chosen optimism and determination," he told the crowd in Sydney, as cheers erupted,
"Australians have chosen to face global challenges the Australian way - looking after each other while building for the future," he added.
