Narendra Modi 1993 Photo:

A 1993 photo of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going viral on social media platform X which was taken before he held any public office. This picture shows his deep patriotism and true commitment to 'Indianness'. In the picture, a young Narendra Modi can be seen addressing the people from a stage in a foreign country. What adds depth to this picture is that there is a small picture prominently displayed on the stage. This picture shows Vasudev secretly carrying the newborn Lord Krishna across the Yamuna river in a basket.

Apart from this, a large 'Om' symbol is visible along with the picture of Lord Krishna. The 'Om' symbol, widely recognized as a sacred sound, syllable, mantra and invocation in Hinduism, has further enriched the significance of the scene. 

The reason this picture of Prime Minister Modi is going viral on social media is that it is completely different from the recent appearance of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on foreign soil, where he has been accused of diminishing the dignity of India. The comments made by Rahul Gandhi during his US visit are being severely criticized. The BJP has accused him of trying to reduce India's reputation on the global stage.

The Modi Archive (which traces the life journey of PM Narendra Modi through archival photographs, videos, audio recordings, letters, newspaper clips and similar materials) posted the photo on X with the comment, “While Rahul baba is busy maligning India and Indianness, here is our NM – always carrying India in his soul and proudly displaying Indianness. He carries it with him (literally! Just look at his left). The spirit of India and the pride of Indianness are with him, in India and abroad. [Photo: 1993]”

Modi Archive has shared this photo to emphasize the Prime Minister's genuine belief in and promotion of Indianness. Observers believe that Prime Minister Modi has instilled a deep sense of national pride in people both in India and abroad. This pride inspires them to stand up for their country, no matter where they are. As a result, the Indian diaspora often comes in large numbers to welcome Prime Minister Modi and show their love and respect for him during his visits to foreign countries.
