ormer Consul General of Israel in New York Ido Aharoni said India's presence has become more robust in the last eight years and called Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership "inspirational"."I think that during the last eight years Brand India had a more robust presence in the world. It's a combination of the opportunity given by technology, especially during the three-year window of COVID-19. Because COVID-19 was a big disruption. And in a way, people were sitting at home and they were looking for content to consume and things that were unheard of before for example, people consuming content from other countries all of a sudden became common place... And I think that his (PM Modi) leadership is inspirational within India, and it has an impact on the way India is being perceived in the world," Ido Aharoni told ANI here.
