Prime Minister Narendra Modi, after meeting US President Donald Trump at the White House, shared his vision of ‘Make India Great Again’. PM Modi said that the joint vision of MAGA and MIGA will become a mega partnership.
MIGA is a phrase inspired by Donald Trump’s famous slogan ‘Make America Great Again’. “In the language of America, it’s Make India Great Again – MIGA. When America and India work together, this MAGA plus MIGA becomes a ‘mega partnership for prosperity’ and it is this mega spirit that gives new scale and scope to our objectives,” said PM Modi while addressing a joint press conference alongside Trump.
President Trump often talks about MAGA.
In India, we are working towards a Viksit Bharat, which in American context translates into MIGA.

India and the US have decided to take a big leap in broad-basing their strategic ties in several critical areas, with President Trump announcing after talks with PM Modi that Washington is paving the way to provide New Delhi with F-35 fighter jets as part of increasing military supplies by billions of dollars.
After holding wide-ranging talks with PM Modi, Trump said there is a “special bond” between the world’s oldest and largest democracies and both sides decided to shore up cooperation in diverse areas such as energy, critical technologies and connectivity.
PM Modi is the fourth foreign leader to visit Trump in the weeks after the American leader’s inauguration as the 47th President of the US.
