First in this context is a shortened, more informal way of saying "the first occurrence of an event". By extension, many firsts is the first occurrence of multiple, distinct events. Through the link provided it seems like the firsts referred to are the beginning of work of India's first high speed rail project, the "first-of-its-kind roadshow" of the two leaders, and presumably other events which have not been mentioned in this particular article.
The phrase many firsts or a number of firsts is one that comes up occasionally, and tends to denote positive progress. In this example, it is saying that the Japanese Prime Minister is starting things with the Indian government that have not been done before, implying positive growth in the relations between Japan and India.
