Modi to speak to Facebook users in Silicon Valley
San Francisco
INDIAN Prime Minister Narendra Modi will not only speak to Silicon Valley's biggest executives during his two-day visit to the US tech hub but will also take questions from some of Facebook Inc's 1.5 billion users at a town hall on Sunday.
Mr Modi, 65, is the first Indian leader to visit the US West Coast in more than 30 years. His trip follows a similar visit by China's President Xi Jinping, who met several tech leaders in Seattle last week.
