The Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) manifesto for the 2024 general elections, titled ‘Sankalp Patra,’ prominently features photographs of Prime Minister Narendra Modi alongside various world leaders and prominent personalities.
Let’s take a closer look at some of these images:
Photo 1: A Historic Gathering at Rajghat
The first photo captures a historic gathering at Rajghat, the memorial of Mahatma Gandhi, where PM Modi is pictured with U.S. President Joe Biden and U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
Photo 2: A Confluence of Global Leadership at the G20 Summit
The second photo showcases a group of leaders at the G20 Summit, including World Bank President Ajay Banga, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, PM Narendra Modi, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, and U.S. President Biden.
Photo 3: PM Modi and President Macron’s Tea-Time Tech Talk
The third photo depicts PM Modi explaining India’s Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system to French President Emmanuel Macron during a visit to a local tea stall.
Political analysts suggest the BJP is likely aiming to leverage PM Modi’s perceived success in elevating India’s global stature as a key campaign message ahead of elections.
