On buses and rickshaws, sidewalks and bridges, billboards and market walls – it’s hard to spend much time in New Delhi these days without seeing the face of the Indian Prime Minister. Narendra Modi.
The avalanche of publicity is part of a marketing blitz to welcome nearly 30 world leaders who will arrive in the Indian capital this week for the Group of 20 summit. For Modi, it also serves as the unofficial kickoff for the campaign for next year’s elections, in which he is expected to extend his decade in power.
