PM Modi condoled the demise of former Japanese premier Shinzo Abe. He said he was shocked and saddened beyond words at the tragic demise of one of his "dearest friends". Meanwhile, the PM wrote a blog and said Abe will be remembered by the people for years to come. His contribution to India-Japan relations was richly recognised by the conferment upon him of the prestigious Padma Vibhushan in 2021, he added.
