Dear Editor,
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s direct and seemingly effortless outreach to the Indian diaspora in Brussels makes for a commendable performance.
While interacting with the Indian community in Belgium, the Indian Prime Minister outlined some of the achievements of his Government in the past year. He also subtly pointed out to the tremendous loss of national time, manpower and resources under successive leaderships in the past, which failed to keep a check on corruption or even provide for a basic standard of living to a vast majority of the Indian population.
Modi’s hour-long address was keenly perceived by a receptive audience, with a sense of pride and satisfaction. The honour in being ‘Indian’ could be felt among the large gathering. This explains Modi’s success in sharing people’s Mann ki Baat as much as his own, which surely deserves full praise and appreciation.
