The visit of the Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, to the UK is the most important moment for the British-Indian relationship in generations.

This is not only due to issues of trade, student numbers or high diplomacy – although these are unquestionably important – but because his arrival today comes at a time when the British Indian diaspora has truly come of age. British Indians have reached the very top of public life, be it in business, academia, healthcare or politics. It is a group that has made, and continues to make, an immeasurable contribution to this country. This visit – Modi’s first to the UK, and the first by an Indian prime minister for many years – will be a defining moment for the community.
