New Delhi, Sept 27 (IBNS): The United Nations on Thursday conferred its highest environment award on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Congratulating Modi and other winners, the UN Environment has left a message on Instagram saying, "Congratulations to the 2018 UN Environment Champions of the Earth! These laureates are being recognized for their contribution to our planet 🌎🌍."

Modi is among seven who have received the award.

Reacting to the conferment of the award on him, Modi said: "I would like to express my gratitude to the global community for conferring this honour upon me.
