Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated the first anniversary of his spectacular victory in the national elections last year with what was a 53-minute address to “mini India” in Shanghai.
His audience, members of the India community in China, chanted “Modi, Modi” everytime the PM delivered a punchline or even just paused.
“I didn’t realise that after one year I will be in front of a mini-India away from India,” the Prime Minister said, drawing cheers when he also said, “No one would make me PM looking at my bio data… I bow to the millions of Indians whose determination made the impossible possible.”
And the Twitterati couldn’t control themselves. Trending on the top for almost the entire day:
Just imagine. One year back, NaMo’s passport was so empty. #NamoVictoryDay
