New Delhi, Aug 30 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi left for Japan early on Saturday morning for a five-day visit. He left at around 6 am, reports said.

The PM is scheduled to meet his counterpart Shinzo Abe privately in Kyoto before holding official talks in Tokyo where the duo is expected boost trade ties between the top two Asian economies.

Modi is traveling with a large delegation including names like Reliance's Mukesh Ambani and software giant Wipro's Azim Premji.

Sources said the PM will seek Japanese support in infrastructural developments, in areas to strengthen defence ties and especially on the sale of an amphibious aircraft to the Indian navy.
