Summary / Abstract (Note) | Prime Minister Narendra Modi has brought great transformation in India’s foreign policy especially by adopting the commercial and cultural diplomacy. Mr. Modi could attract the investments from the US $45 billion, Japan $35 billion, China; $28 billion and further from Canada and European countries France and Germany. Mr. Modi’s inclusive cultural diplomacy has been most fantastic which achieved higher level of appreciation. Without doubt, there is a grand ‘Modi’fication of India’s foreign policy in a very positive direction. However, Mr. Modi’s engagement with his own people in India is very much under the scanner. He seems to distance himself from the masses and getting close to the people around the world especially the Diaspora, business tycoons and technocrats and software tycoons. Due to his very busy foreign tours, he is unable to look into the domestic affairs and crisis. He has heroic appearance at the world stage, but his role in the domestic policy matters before the common masses appears to be questionable. Mr. Modi’s responsibility as the prime minister is optimum and therefore, the prevailing circumstances in India urgently need his intervention. |
