The tour, that began on June 4, saw Modi visiting Afghanistan, Qatar, Switzerland, the US and Mexico with an aim to bolster ties.
Besides addressing a joint sitting of the US Congress, Modi received the backing of two key Nuclear Suppliers Group members — Switzerland and Mexico — for its bid to secure the membership of the 48-nation bloc.
He also held wide-ranging talks with President Barack Obama at the White House following which the US recognised India as a “major defence partner”.
