Media mogul Rupert Murdoch has praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his policies after meeting with the Indian Prime Minister, along with several other Fortune 500 honchos.

Modi is on his second visit to the US. This time, Modi has interacted with CEOs and businessmen last evening, and will be making his way to the Silicon Valley, addressing the Indian diaspora, and meeting US President Barack Obama in the latter part of his visit.

Murdoch's tweet came after Modi met the US media executives in New York on Friday. During the meeting, Modi presented India as a technology-driven society, and pledged protection to Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) to enhance more investment into the country.

Great hour with Indian PM Modi. Best leader with best policies since independence, but massive task to achieve in most complex nation. — Rupert Murdoch (@rupertmurdoch) September 25, 2015

The focus of the Prime Minister's meeting with over dozen media honchos was to understand the trends in media and communication technologies, and the opportunities for India.

Appreciating Modi for his energetic and dynamic leadership, the US media called for a speedier digitisation in India.

The Obama-Modi meet is expected to focus on major international issues like the Iran nuclear deal, renewable energy, military corporation, the civilian nuclear deal and climate change. This is an important meeting as it may be the last time the two may meet before Obama's term ends. The visit is going to wind up on September 28.
