While I appreciate the PM's global outreach, I wish he would show the same enthusiasm for domestic issues like unemployment and inflation. The diaspora love is great, but what about problems back home?
Bhai, this is what we call soft power! When NRIs show this kind of love, it strengthens India's position in global diplomacy. The FTA with UK will be game-changing for our economy.
As an expat in London, I can confirm the energy was electric! The Indian community here is so proud of how far our country has come. Modi ji truly represents New India on global stage.
The emotional reactions show how much NRIs miss their roots. No matter where we go, India remains in our hearts. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳
My cousin in London sent me videos - the crowd was chanting "Modi Modi" like a festival! This is the kind of leadership that makes Indians proud worldwide. More power to him!
