On Friday, Anthony Albanese, the Prime Minister of Australia, paid a visit to the vibrant Little India precinct in Harris Park. He eagerly indulged in the delightful experience of sampling Indian street foods such as chaat and jalebi. This culinary adventure was inspired by a recommendation from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, made during his visit to Australia last month.
Situated in Parramatta, Harris Park proudly embraces a thriving Indian community within its borders. Renowned as a popular hub for Indian cuisine, this vibrant neighborhood boasts an array of Indian-owned businesses and shops, making it a sought-after destination for those seeking an authentic taste of India.
In the previous month, Narendra Modi and Anthony Albanese jointly inaugurated the commencement of the ‘Little India’ gateway during a special ceremony held at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney.
While sharing the video and pictures on his official Twitter handle, the Australian Prime Minister wrote, “Great Friday night in Little India, Harris Park with @Charlton_AB. We tried out Prime Minister @narendramodi’s recommendations of chaat at Chatkazz and jalebi at Jaipur Sweets – a winner!”
Prime Minister Modi responded to the tweet by saying, “Sounds like a memorable Friday night, imbibing the best of Indian culture and culinary diversity. A winner indeed, like the India-Australia friendship.”
During his visit to Australia last month, PM Modi addressed a community event in Sydney. During the address, he said, “I’ve heard that Chatkazz ‘Chaat’ and ‘Jalebi’ from Jaipur Sweets at Harris Park are very delicious. I want you all to take my friend Australian PM Albanese to that place.”
In a joint press briefing, PM Modi also invited Australian PM Anthony Albanese to watch Cricket World Cup in India. In a joint press briefing, PM Modi said, “I invite PM Anthony Albanese and all Australian cricket fans to India for the Cricket World Cup this year. At that time, you will also get to see the grand Diwali celebration in India.”
The upcoming ODI World Cup is set to be held in India during October and November 2023. According to a report by Cricbuzz, the tournament will kick off with a match between England and New Zealand on 5 October at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The semi-final of the World Cup 2023 will take place at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium, while the final match on 19 November will see the two top teams battling it out once again at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
