Mumbai: India will now have to pay dearly for the bonhomie between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and out-going US President Donald Trump, contended former Congress MLC Architect Anant Gadgil. Reacting to the storming of Capitol Hill on January 6 by Trump supporters, Gadgil stated that Trump had brought disrepute to the image of the United States of America (USA).
Commenting upon the huge “Namaste Trump” rally organized by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for US President Donald Trump in Ahmedabad in February 2020, the senior Congress leader argued that it does not fit into foreign policy and diplomacy norms to organize a rally for a Presidential election candidate of another country. India will have to pay dearly for this event in near future. The “Namaste Trump” rally was a follow-up to the “Howdy Modi” event organized in Houston, Texas earlier in September 2019.

India has had to face another embarrassment after British Prime Minister Boris Johnson cancelled his India visit to attend the Republic Day parade as the chief guest on January 26. Gadgil stated that the UK Prime Minister cancelled his India trip following the outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus in Great Britain.
Gadgil further argued that the growing influence of China in India’s immediate neighbourhood countries of Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan has exposed the immature foreign policy of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
