Now Even Pakistan Loves PM Modi: Singer Anup Jalota

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is admired globally and even Pakistan loves him, said popular singer Anup Jalota on Tuesday.

"I will say that people all over the world love Modiji so much. Now even Pakistan loves Modi. All the people living in Pakistan said that we need a leader like Modiji in Pakistan. So Pakistan all over the world Modi ji has created such a beautiful love. Spread love to everyone," ANI quoted Jalota as saying at the PM's event in Sydney at the Qudos Bank Arena.

He further said that people want Modi as their "permanent" Prime Minister. "All the people here in Sydney, what I'm watching, have one thing in their heart that they want Modiji as permanent Prime Minister, they love him. See Modiji is here, relations will improve. This is what he does. Wherever he goes, he comes with a full basket of love," he added.

The Prime Minister on Tuesday evening addressed the Indian community at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney Olympic Park, one of the biggest indoor stadiums in Sydney which had earlier hosted international stars like Bruce Springsteen and the Backstreet Boys. The event was witnessed by about 20,000 people.

His reference to Pakistanis wanting a leader like PM Modi came after a video, in which a Pakistani man claiming that his country would have been like India if PM Modi was leading it, had gone viral in February.

"If The partition had not happened we would have got tomato at PKR 20, chicken at PKR 150 and petrol at PKR 50," a Pakistani is reportedly heard telling in a viral video while claiming that the fate of his country would have been different if ruled by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

He made this remark during an interview with Pakistani YouTuber named Sana Amjad.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a massive community event in Sydney which was also graced by his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese.
