Indian origin woman in Israel shares her ‘surreal’ experience of meeting PM Modi.
Indian-origin woman in Israel Revital Moses shares her surreal experience of meeting PM Modi amidst his visit to Israel. The video has since gone viral.
Revital Moses expressed disbelief at meeting the leader of the world’s largest democracy in person, stating, that she didn’t realise that she would manifest meeting him face-to-face. She called it as an emotional moment to witness the Israeli Parliament lit up with Indian flag colors, signaling a strengthening of
India-Israel relations.
She noted that her work in the India-Israel space felt validated, expressing belief that the alliance is “manifesting tenfold” and that this is “just the beginning”.
Having grown up in India watching
PM Modi on television, she called the in-person meeting as a significant personal milestone.
The interaction was part of a broader, warm welcome for PM Modi by the Indian diaspora in Israel, with other instances including a woman singing Vande Mataram and an Indian-origin mother teaching her child to say “Shalom Modi”
At the conclusion of
PM Modi’s two-day state visit, India and Israel announced the elevation of their bilateral relationship to a “Special Strategic Partnership for Peace, Innovation and Prosperity”, marking a significant expansion of cooperation across defence, technology, trade, and people-to-people exchanges.
The decision to elevate ties comes amid rapid expansion in bilateral engagement over the past decade, particularly in defence, agriculture, water management, and high technology. Israel is among India’s top defence suppliers, while Indian companies have steadily increased their footprint in Israel’s infrastructure and innovation ecosystems.
