The recent visit of Indian PM to USA got wide popularity for wrong reasons. I live in USA and all I heard about the visit was that one couple was managed to sneak into a party hosted by the US President in honor of the visiting Indian PM.
I didn't hear anything about why the Indian PM visited the US or what agreement they have signed. The newspapers were giving more importance to the party crashing couples.
Usually when a Pakistani President or PM visits the US, they get more publicity in the US media for the right reasons. They will talk about why the Pakistani head of the state is visiting the US and what impact it is going to have in the War on Terror.
The Indian PM didn't get anything like that. All he got was a grant dinner. What have we got as a nation from that. Our PR as a nation is terrible. It should be redone so that people get a very good idea about India as a nation.
For most Americans, India is what they have seen through the movie 'Slumdog Millionaire'. Every American that I meet is talking to me about the largest slum in the world. That is our image. A director was able to do more PR than our PM. Shame on us!
