PM Modi's huge protocol gaffe, kept walking during national anthem in Moscow - Janta Ka Reporter
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday night committed a huge protocol gaffe causing him considerable embarrassment.
Upon arrival in the Russian capital Moscow, Modi was to take the guard of honour, which started with the playing of Indian national anthem.
However, as required by the protocol, Modi didn’t stand in attention until the completion of the national anthem and he kept walking.
It took two local officials’ intervention to remind him that he needed to stand. One official was seen pulling the prime minister holding his hand.
Modi then returned and stood in attention.
This will be seen as a huge lapse by Modi as standing in attention during the national anthem is a common knowledge and for him to commit this gaffe at a foreign soil is even more embarrassing.
More to come:
He will be laughing stock of the world.
