Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in New York City on Thursday to
attend the U.N. General Assembly and a series of bilateral engagements
on its margins.
An official told The Hindu there had been ‘very little time’ to
organise the interactions ahead of the U.S. visit. Instead, the briefing
came from BJP general secretary Ram Madhav, who held a Facebook
interaction on September 21.
The forthright statements and the use of the PM’s personal website and
Twitter handles are giving rise to speculation that South Block is
ceding ground to more ‘unofficial modes’ of public diplomacy in the Modi
government.
After assuming office in June 2014, Mr. Modi has visited several
countries in a bid to hard sell his government's 'Make In India'
campaign and to boost bilateral relations. Here is an interactive map of countries visited by the Prime Minister and the highlights of his visit.
