Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday congratulated Canadian premier Justin Trudeau for returning to power.
Trudeau's Liberal Party held onto power in a nail-biting election on Monday. But it emerged weaker as a minority government.
"Congratulations @JustinTrudeau. India and Canada are connected by shared values and a strong commitment to democracy as well as plurality.
Congratulations @JustinTrudeau!

Looking forward to working together to further strengthen bilateral relations," PM Modi tweeted.
Trudeau would now require at least 13 legislators from his left-leaning rival parties to reach the ''magic number'' of 170 to form a Liberal Party-led minority government in the 338-seat House of Commons.
