Nice video. Made me feel proud. Best wishes to him. :tup:
I don't know, I found it incredibly patronising. This is 2015 and "shuttle diplomacy" was invented/coined in the 1960s, is this simply the right of Western leaders? When an Indian PM does it he is mocked and demeaned. Also, it has been empirically proven that Modi has spent a comparable amount of days outside of India as MMS in his first year but actually managed to visit more countries not to mention India is now the world's number 1 FDI destination(so obviously it is not futile). These kind of facts are omitted in every single "Modi likes to travel" account.

I've yet to see any attention given to Putin's, Obama's, Cameron's, Hollande's, Merkal's etc travel schedule- why the fascination with Modi's?

Oh and then the map the BBC chose to use- not even Al Jazeera uses that map, it says a lot.

Relax. It was the British Broadcasting Corporation. You know how it is. :) They have their axe to grind. I believe Modi has succeeded in building a positive reputation. For this nation. That is what matters. What BBC does is something we can never control. So ... lets first shut our own Prannoys and Burqas. :agree:
