‘This Is The Prime Minister’: UK PM Keir Starmer Surprises British Airways Co-Passengers From Cockpit On Maiden India Visit – Video

**British PM Keir Starmer Begins Historic First Visit to India with Focus on Trade**

**New Delhi:** British Prime Minister Keir Starmer commenced his maiden visit to India on an unusual yet engaging note aboard his British Airways flight from London to Mumbai. A video surfaced showing Starmer greeting passengers by saying, “This is the Prime Minister. I’m in the cockpit. This is the biggest trade mission to India that the UK has ever sent. I’m looking forward to working with you as we explore all the opportunities in our new free trade agreement.”

**PM Modi’s Warm Welcome**

Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended a warm welcome to Starmer on his “historic first visit to India.” Posting on X, Modi expressed optimism about their upcoming meeting:
_”Looking forward to our meeting tomorrow for advancing our shared vision of a stronger, mutually prosperous future.”_

**Details of the Visit**

Starmer is on a two-day visit to India, accompanied by a robust 125-strong business delegation. Upon arrival in Mumbai, he visited the iconic Yash Raj Film studio and also took part in a football event, signaling a blend of cultural engagement and diplomacy.

Following the informal activities, Starmer prepared for discussions with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar. These talks are a prelude to his meeting with PM Modi, where both leaders plan to review the progress made under the India-UK Comprehensive Strategic Partnership aligned with their ambitious ‘Vision 2035.’

Trade tops the agenda of the visit, with Starmer’s delegation aiming to capitalize on opportunities arising from the recently signed trade agreement. This deal aspires to double bilateral trade between the two nations to nearly $100 billion by 2030.

**Trade Agreement Under Scrutiny**

While the agreement marks a significant milestone, it is still undergoing scrutiny by the British Parliament. The House of Lords International Agreements Committee launched an inquiry on September 10, focusing on the potential benefits and risks for the UK, broader geopolitical implications, and the future of UK-India relations.

Lord Goldsmith, chair of the committee, emphasized these focal points amid ongoing evaluations.

**Indian Perspective on the Agreement**

Ambassador Ruchi Ghanashyam, former High Commissioner to the UK, acknowledged the agreement’s ambitious roadmap to deepen economic ties over the medium and long term but also highlighted areas needing further work.

“We are yet to see easing of visas from the UK side, but important agreements covering migration, mobility, and social security contributions of Indian nationals working in the UK are definitely steps in the right direction,” she noted. “There is a strong logic behind forging stronger bilateral ties between India and the UK, and governments in both countries recognize this.”

**Visa Issues: A Point of Friction**

Visa policies remain a slight point of friction in the India-UK relationship. Starmer clearly stated during an interaction with reporters in Mumbai that visa issues would not be discussed on this visit.

Rahul RoyChaudhury, Senior Fellow for South and Central Asian Defence, Strategy, and Diplomacy at the UK-based International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), described this as expected given the domestic political climate in the UK.

“Immigration has become a significant political issue with recent large anti-immigration rallies in London. It is anticipated to influence the local elections in 2026 and the general elections in 2029, where the Labour party could potentially lose ground to right-wing parties,” said RoyChaudhury.

He added, “Consequently, the government is enforcing a tough crackdown on illegal immigration alongside proposals to restrict legal migration to address public concerns.”

**Engagement at CEO Forum and Global Fintech Fest 2025**

Starmer and Modi are also scheduled to participate jointly in the CEO Forum and the Global Fintech Fest 2025 on Thursday, further underlining the commitment to expand economic and technological cooperation.

**Addressing Concerns on Sikh Extremism**

On India’s concerns regarding Sikh extremism, experts believe Starmer’s government has countered the expectations of Sikh separatists that the Labour administration might sympathize with their cause.

“There is now heightened awareness within the British government about the detrimental impact of Sikh separatists in the UK, and a clear intent to prevent a situation akin to what has been seen in parts of Canada and the US,” asserted RoyChaudhury.

Ambassador Ghanashyam agreed, emphasizing balance: “While the two sides will continue to engage on this subject, it is important not to blow the issue out of proportion. Sikh separatists are a small group and do not represent the majority view of the Sikh community in the UK.”

**Summary**

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s inaugural trip to India signals a broadened and deepened collaboration between the two nations, especially in trade and economic partnerships. While challenges such as visa issues and security concerns remain, both countries appear committed to advancing their Comprehensive Strategic Partnership for a mutually prosperous future.

Navi Mumbai Airport Inauguration Leaves Villagers Disappointed Over No D B Patil Naming Announcement

Villagers from Navi Mumbai and adjoining coastal districts have expressed deep disappointment following the inauguration of the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA). During the event, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis made only passing references to the late farmer leader D. B. Patil, without officially announcing that the airport would be named after him.

Just before the ceremony, Dashrat Patil, President of the NMIA Kruti Samiti (All-Party Action Committee), had expressed optimism. “I am sure today is the day the airport will get its much-deserved name. Our hard work will not go waste,” he said.

### Hopes Dashed Despite PM and CM Mentions

However, during the inauguration, PM Modi merely stated, “Today I would also like to remember the great leader D. B. Patil, who toiled for farmers and remains an inspiration to all of us.” Similarly, Chief Minister Fadnavis acknowledged Patil’s contributions but stopped short of making any formal naming declaration.

“When Fadnavis called out D. B. Patil’s name, we were hopeful it was about the airport naming,” shared Dashrat Patil. “It was a huge disappointment. He had earlier assured us that the Prime Minister had agreed in principle, but nothing was mentioned today.”

The Kruti Samiti has announced plans to meet CM Fadnavis within the next ten days to seek documentary clarity on the airport naming process.

### Locals Threaten Political Action

According to Nilesh Patil, a member of the Action Committee representing project-affected persons (PAPs), the silence from the Prime Minister has triggered anger among locals. “We were all waiting to hear that the airport would be named after our leader. It’s really disappointing, and there will be repercussions,” he said.

Leaders of the committee and representatives of affected villages have hinted at intensifying their agitation and potentially taking decisive political steps ahead of the upcoming civic elections.

### Long-Standing Demand Across Coastal Maharashtra

The demand to name NMIA after D. B. Patil has been a decades-long movement, uniting villages from Mumbai, Thane, Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Sindhudurg districts. These communities are collectively represented by the D. B. Patil Navi Mumbai Airport Naming All-Party Action Committee.

A massive morcha (protest march) planned for October 6 was postponed after Chief Minister Fadnavis assured further talks.

“We would not let any flight take off if the naming is not done,” warned Dhanraj Mungaji from the committee. “It was a golden day for aviation, and today the announcement should have been made. We are extremely disappointed, but our fight will continue.”

The wealth beneath our soil should serve the Filipino people

MANILA, Philippines – Now that we have finally enacted the Enhanced Fiscal Regime for Large-Scale Metallic Mining (under Republic Act No. 12253), I want to explain why I fought so hard for one particular element of this law: transparency.

Wyoming library director fired amid book dispute wins $700,000 settlement

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) —

A former Wyoming library director who was fired amid an uproar over books with sexual content has become the center of a heated debate on free speech and censorship.

The controversy began when several parents raised concerns about certain titles available to young readers, leading to widespread discussions in the community and local media coverage.

Supporters of the director argue that removing books from library shelves infringes on intellectual freedom, while opponents believe some materials are inappropriate for children.

As the debate continues, the incident highlights broader national conversations about the role of libraries, parental control, and access to information in public spaces.
