Bhutan's Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay has praised the tenure of his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi and said India has grown spectacularly under his leadership.

He said the development of infrastructure sector has been spectacular during Modi's regime.

"Well, to look forward, you look backwards and you see the last ten years, during the last ten years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, India has grown spectacularly. Infrastructure, the development in infrastructure has been unprecedented- airports, roads, rails, seaways, all of that growth has been spectacular. In the area of FDI, there's been a lot of FDI, a lot of manufacturing, renewable energy, particularly solar energy, agriculture, and poverty alleviation," the Bhutanese PM told ANI.

He is currently in India to attend the oath-taking ceremony of PM Narendra Modi who returned to power for the third straight term after winning the Lok Sabha polls.

Several top regional leaders, including Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina, are attending the swearing-in ceremony in India's iconic Rashtrapati Bhavan.

Modi is the first Bharatiya Janata Party leader who is taking oath for a record-equalling third term as PM, a rare achievement in India politics.
