Morphed image viral"},"content":{"rendered":"

An image of a drone light show, where the face of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, along with the text “Modi welcome to China”, was displayed along with a figure of a dancing woman, went viral on social media just before the Indian leader’s scheduled visit to China. Those sharing the image hailed it as an example of the supremacy of the Indian Prime Minister, who even made arch rival China ‘bow down’.<\/p>\n

PM Modi arrived in China’s Tianjin on August 31 for the annual summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) and was scheduled to hold bilateral meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the event. The meeting is crucial as it comes days after US President Donald Trump imposed a 50% tariff on Indian goods, owing to its hefty purchases of Russian crude. Modi’s visit to China — his first in seven years — has sparked speculation that New Delhi and Beijing will attempt to ease tensions and bolster trade ties. Diplomatic relations between the two countries had been tense after the 2020 Galwan Valley skirmishes that left many soldiers dead.<\/p>\n
