Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived here on Saturday on a two-day visit which is focused on giving a new push to the economic ties, particularly in the hydrocarbon sector, between India and Qatar.
Modi will hold detailed talks with His Highness Shaikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Amir of Qatar and address the business community of Qatar, a country which is India's largest supplier of LNG requirements, accounting for 65 per cent of the country's total imports last financial year.
On his arrival, Modi was warmly received by Qatar's Prime Minister Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Al Thani at the airport.
"Reached Doha. India attaches great priority to strong ties with Qatar & my visit seeks to expand bilateral ties between our nations," he tweeted on his arrival.
"I look forward to the various programs that will enhance economic & people-to-people ties between India & Qatar," he said in another tweet.
He also tweeted some messages in Arabic language.
