United Nations, June 10 UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres congratulates Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the inauguration of his third term, and looks forward to working with him, his spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said on Monday.

"The people of India should be congratulated, (and) the government, for organising an election of this size which is frankly unseen anywhere else in the world," Dujarric said.
