Barack Obama will be Chief Guts on Republic Day Parade 26 Jan 2015

Modi won't be making this public unless he had prior confirmation about Obama's presence! So.. yes, reports are suggesting that this is going to happen!

Modi just invited him.Please dissolve this thread for now

That is actually not how such diplomatic invites work. Nobody just invites blindly. I will be astonished if it hasn't been agreed to before the invite was made public.

Barack Obama will be Chief Guest on Republic Day Parade 26 Jan 2015


Now this news - Resonates a Strong Message across Globe.....

Guts Ughhh. My fellow Indians get so excited and wet their chadis that they cant even be bothered to type properly. If Obama farts and it sounds like the Jana Gana Mana then a hundred threads flower. Get a life. When Obama is their at Republic day write about it.

I think Mr. Putin will be the best candidate for chief guest...........

Why? The man is an international pariah, India would gain little by inviting him as Chief guest.

Actually it could be interesting to see how Obama will use this tactically and how the republicans react. Obama can use this as a try to deepen the ties between both countries and gain a major foreign policy success, which the Republicans surely don't want to grant him. On the other side, the republicans are seeing India as a coming market and therefor pushing themselfs for better relations since years, so they can't be against an improvement either. If there is a chance for Obama to take a win, than it would be this one and even his own party for once might stand behind him on this, since it's important for the democrats to show some good points of this term to have chances in the next elections and give Hillary a good base.

India is one of the few topics/nations that there is general bi-partisan consensus on so I doubt the Republicans would create any issues with Obama deepening ties with India.

That's the point, but it will be tough for them to swallow if Obama turns this to a major win, with their support. Anyway, it's a chance for him and even more for our PM to take the chance.

Chief Guts.

In the current political situation internationally, it might be difficult. I didn't even saw many pics of him and the PM during the recent G20 summit (but correct me if I'm wrong), where Putin was purposly sidelined by most of the leaders.

You are right Sir but we should also take care of our very important friend....

What happened to India's foreign policy all of a sudden All top world leaders are either coming or Modi is visiting them. India is really making its presence felt at the world stage.
