Taking to ‘X’ he wrote “Wow! Delhi Metro, you make travelling so easy! I had a great time riding the Delhi metro for the first time and meeting fellow passengers. A shout out to the well maintained, efficient, and green public transport system that is among the best in the world!”

Garcetti recently said the “great minds” back in his homeland and India can find more paths to peace.

“I’m so proud to see the United States of America and India working together for a more peaceful world. But we have to innovate. The world is changing more in the next five or ten years than it’s changed in the last 100 years. But the great minds in India and the great minds in the United States can work to find more paths to peace,” he said.
