Colombo, April 4 (Daily Mirror) - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) a short while ago for a three-day official visit.

He arrived at the Katunayake Airport on the special Boeing 777 aircraft "India - 01" belonging to the Indian government, from Bangkok, Thailand.

Among them is the presence of Indian External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar.

They arrived in Sri Lanka for this visit after attending the BIMSTEC Summit held in Bangkok, Thailand.

Foreign Minister Vijitha Herath arrived at the Special Guest Lounge at the Katunayake Airport to receive the Indian Prime Minister and the delegation.

Due to the current rainy weather conditions in the area around the Katunayake Airport, arrangements have been made to hold the ceremony in that lounge.

JUDE, always has to make a sarcastic comment!!. NOOOOOO we the PEOPLE have had a gut full of CHINA for giving the corrupt govt/politicians a LOAN they very well knew we would not be able to repay and the RAJAPASKE's wanted to feather their nests so the project was approved in HAMBANTOTA. NO MORE OF OUR COUNTRY'S PROJECTS AND OR ASSETS MUST GO TO CHINA, AS THEIR AGENDA FOR RUBBING OUR SHOULDERS WITH POOR UNDERDEVELOPED COUNTRIES AND IR ISLANDS IS WELL KNOWN AROUND THE WORLD.

Nalinda Jayatissa do you remember how you criticized India when you were in the opposition? Those videos are now spreading everywhere like wild fire. It shows your party's double standard. What a shame.

Sri Lanka must always be vigilant about this giant neighbour, or any other big power for that matter. One must not hesitate to make constructive criticism whenever such is timely. Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa has been a no-nonsense, respectful, decent individual unlike some past and present members of parliament who keep bashing at anything and everything regardless, like lost souls.

Modi Ji saved Sri Lanka from acute financial crisis. This is what is a true neighbor does but it pains us when Sri Lankan navy shoots our fishermen. Warning or nabbing them to be released later on friendly note would be pleasing. Killing them tantamounts to murdering whole dependent family members. However, we will always wish for growth and well being of Lankan people.

Friend in need is a friend indeed. If India did not help us to purchase fuel and medicines during the bankruptcy we couldn't even imagine our fate.
