“In today’s uncertain times, energy security and economic security have become more important than ever. We have prepared a joint roadmap to strengthen cooperation in semiconductors, quantum technology and supply chain resilience,” Modi said.

The two leaders also launched the India-Japan Biogas Initiative under the Govardhan Pahal, aimed at setting up biogas plants across India to promote sustainability, rural livelihoods and the circular economy.

Calling Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi his “younger sister,” Modi said her first visit to India as Prime Minister marks “a new chapter” in the India-Japan Special Strategic and Global Partnership. The two sides agreed to further deepen cooperation across trade, technology, clean energy and strategic sectors amid growing global economic and geopolitical uncertainties.
