Georgetown/New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi was conferred with the highest national award of Guyana, ‘The Order of Excellence’, by President Mohamed Irfaan Ali at a ceremony at the State House.

While accepting the award on Wednesday, Prime Minister Modi dedicated the honour to the people of India and to the deep-rooted historical ties between the people of the two countries. He emphasized that his State visit is testament to India’s continued commitment towards deepening India-Guyana friendship.

Prime Minister Modi is only the fourth foreign leader to be conferred with the highest National award of Guyana.
