Brussels: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday paid tribute to the victims of the Brussels terror attacks in which over 30 people, including an Indian, lost their lives due to "mindless violence".
Modi, who arrived on a day-long visit to attend the India-EU Summit, laid a wreath of white flowers at the Maalbeek Metro station in the Belgian capital where a suicide bomber blew himself up killing scores of passengers, including Raghavendran Ganeshan, an Infosys employee from Bengaluru.
"In remembrance of those men and women who lost their lives due to mindless violence in Brussels," the Prime Minister's office tweeted along with pictures of Modi laying the wreath.
Modi, flanked by Belgian Foreign Minister Didier Reynders, bowed his head and clasped his hands together in tribute to the victims of the suicide blasts.
"At a time of grief, India stands in solidarity. Before official engagements, PM lays wreath at Maalbeek metro station," External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Vikas Swarup tweeted.
At the Maalbeek Metro Station, the Prime Minister remembered Ganeshan and other victims of tragic attack, Swarup said.
Modi's visit comes just days after the March 22 terror attack in which at least 32 people were killed.
