Modi Pours Tea

Very little was expected in India from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the U.S., and for good reason: Modi had gone out of his way to cultivate a personal relationship with Barack Obama, including famously pouring out a cup of tea for him and the cameras when Obama visited India.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Barack Obama had a tete-e-tete on the lawns of Hyderabad House after their lunch today. The two leaders had a walk, which was followed by tea during which the Prime Minister poured out the beverage for his guest.
