Mary Millben’s Statements
The singer stated,
“Having performed the American national anthem and patriotic music for four consecutive US presidents, I am deeply honored to perform the Indian national anthem for Prime Minister Modi and in honor of the country and people I have come to call my family.”
She continued.
“Both the American and Indian anthems speak to the ideals of democracy and freedom, and this is the true essence of the US-India relationship. A free nation is only defined by a free people.”
PM Modi’s Aura
PM Modi’s tremendous spiritual aura and deep rootedness in Indian traditions and culture have earned him widespread admiration.
During PM Modi’s visit to Papua New Guinea last month, the Pacific Island nation’s Prime Minister touched PM Modi’s feet as a token of respect. A similar act was seen on his departure from the country. A man and a woman bowed in front of the Prime Minister with their heads touching the ground, according to airport footage. PM Modi quickly returned their greeting by bowing with folded hands.
