Sir — This refers to the article, “To Modi, with love. From Indians abroad” (November 21) by Kalyani Shankar. Why is it that everyone talks about visa and travel facilities to non-resident Indians as an important reason for the support Prime Minister Narendra Modi gets abroadIJ Had these NRIs stayed home before these announcementsIJ Or, did NRIs grudge paying the required visa feesIJ
The simple fact is that Indians living abroad are more in tune with getting things done in a clean and corruption-free way, and they find in Mr Modi a leader who can deliver on the promise of a clean and functional administration. That sums up the support he gets on foreign soil.
