Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently delivered a speech at the US Congress and that stood out alone in giving Pakistan a free pass when it comes to harbouring a rogue’s gallery of terrorists. Modi who delivered the powerful speech showed that he doesn't know the meaning og 'Jet Lag'.
When Modi touches New Delhi, he would have covered 33,000 kilometres, held over 45 meetings across five countries, and spent over 44 hours on Air India One. Modi who became the fifth Indian Prime Minister to address the US Congress received a series of standing ovations and thunderous applause from lawmakers.
Modi said, "A strong India-US partnership can anchor peace, prosperity and stability from Asia to Africa and the Indian Ocean to the Pacific. Siri tells us that India’s ancient heritage of yoga has over 30 million practitioners in the US. It is estimated that more Americans bend for yoga than to throw a curve ball."
Modi also addressed US concerns on issues like intellectual property rights. He addressed them with subtle humour and that grabbed attention.
