HINDU RISHI VERSUS BRITISH SUNAK
The Morning Standard|September 10, 2023
THE Empire tried to strike back but got struck in the back instead at the G20 summit in New Delhi. In the 1940s, as India's freedom struggle raged, Winston Churchill warned, "If Independence is granted to India, power will go to... men of straw."

HINDU RISHI VERSUS BRITISH SUNAK

 Churchill would be spinning in the grave after UK's Hindu Prime Minister Rishi Sunak famously chanted 'Jai Shri Ram' at Cambridge earlier this month. But "Jai Sunak" calls at the G20 meet were muted. Though the British PM was the first Indian-origin person to run a white country which had enslaved India for over 200 years, Sunak was met at the airport by Minister Of State Ashwani Choubey. India's Prime Minister held a bilateral meeting with him on the summit sidelines and gave him the famous Modi Hug. But he received no special treatment like the heads of the US, Bangladesh and Mauritius, whom Modi invited home to 7 Lok Kalyan Marg for bilateral talks. This was a first in diplomatic history-India's premier throwing an informal dinner for an American president at his residence. Usually, it's the President of India who plays the host. Narendra Modi, the Maestro of Subtle Signals, was his belligerent best-telling Putin and Xi that India was a peninsular superpower which made its calls on oil or Ukraine.
