Visa? What visa? Modi to deliver keynote speech at US event

[mehboobkz]

Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi is all set to deliver a keynote address for the Wharton India Economic Forum (WIEF) at The Penn Museum in Philadelphia. Montek Singh Ahluwalia too is going to speak at the event, says the Wharton India website.

But how will he attend an event in the US without a visa? An Indian Express reports says that the the Wharton India website clarified on Thursday that both Modi and Ahluwalia would be speaking live via video-conference.


A group of US powerful lawmakers had earlier, in a public appeal to the Obama administration, had asked it not to change the “good policy” of denying visa to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi under any circumstances in view of serious allegations of “crime against humanity” against him.

Bureaucrat-turned-politician KJ Alphons, who tried to convince US lawmakers to revoke visa restrictions on Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, failed to receive any firm commitment the issue.

But then, a video conference should not be a tough job for Modi since he has already wooed his supported through his hi-tech 3D video speeches, ahead of the Gujarat elections.

His 3D stunt, though criticised by the Opposition in Gujarat, was received well by BJP supporters. And one has to admit, that Narendra Modi, unlike most other politicians, is quite the tech savvy person.

ontopic : Many countries which have an interest in the dynamics of Indian politics have already started preparations for one possible outcome .. MODI may become the next PM.

So, issues like visa and other sh!t whipped up in other countries may just wane away..

Washington, Mar 2: Narendra Modi, who is fast emerging as BJP’s likely PM candidate in 2014 General Elections, continues to face acceptability challenges in US even after UK and EU decided to end his diplomatic boycott.

The management at Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania might ask for the Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi’s name to be dropped from the speakers’ list at the prestigious Wharton India Economic Forum scheduled to be held on March 23, according to a media report.

The BJP leader was approached by the students' body which organises the forum and he had agreed to deliver a key note address at the meet through video conference. But sources now say that the management has reservations over his inclusion in the speakers' list and might ask for his name to be dropped. As of now, the forum's website lists Mr Modi as one of the speakers.

Wharton India Economic Forum is an annual student-run India-centric conference hosted by the Wharton School. The speakers for the meeting are usually chosen by the students' body. Sources say this is the first time when the administration has intervened in their decision.

Wharton may not allow Narendra Modi

Modi Key note.... Killing, Rape, Muslim, Genocide & Hindu terror.....

What you have mentioned are all Islamic traits? Killings, Rape, Muslim killings, Minority genocides and Islamic terror has always happened in the regions occupied by majority muslims. This has happened through out the existence of Islam. So you may find a lot of Islamic speakers to talk about all these major Islamic achievements..

Why are you silent on Kashmiri Jihadis who started ethnic cleansing of Hindus in kashmir and got half a million Kashmiri Pundits driven out of Valley?

@mods merge two threads

The discussions on Modi should be banned on PDF. It evokes predictable responses from both sides and the thread becomes a troll thread.

As on Modi, it is becoming clearer that he may emerge as a likely PM candidate of BJP, but hard to say how much he is acceptable to other NDA partners.

And Wharton has the most influential Alumni network in India of any foreign B School. I would say a great platform to air his views. A clear indication from US that Modi could emerge as a likely PM candidate.

This same US administration will do anything to woo Modi, who already has good relations with China. Gujarat Businessmen already do a business in China and vice versa.

Just see how these Americans will change their tone. Just like European Union did.

US has already changed their tone. US is wooing Modi to no end and want to make amends for their past folly. If Modi applies for a visa tomorrow, he will get one immediately.
