Washington DC, Mar 31 (IBNS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached Washington DC on Thursday to attend the fourth Nuclear Security Summit in the US.

"PM@Narendra Modi reaches USA.In addition to the Nuclear Security Sumit, he will also interact with world leaders," PMO India tweeted.

Modi arrived here after his visit to Brussels, where he attended the 13th India-EU summit and resolved to fight terrorism together with Belgium.

On Thursday evening, PM Modi will be attending a leaders-only thematic dinner to be hosted by US President Barack Obama at the White House.

This will be followed by three plenary sessions on Friday when India, along with other participating nations, will submit their national nuclear progress reports.

"After Belgium, I will be in Washington DC on March 31 to participate in the Fourth Nuclear Security Summit, where several nations and global organisations would be represented," PM Modi had said in a statement on Tuesday ahead of his departure to Brussels.

"The summit would deliberate on the crucial issue of threat to nuclear security caused by nuclear terrorism. Leaders would discuss ways and measure through which to strengthen the global nuclear security architecture, especially to ensure that non-state actors do not get access to nuclear material," he had said.
