There is always a lot of buzz and excitement in the Indian media’s coverage when Prime Minister Narendra Modi goes abroad. Currently on his six-day long visit to the United States, Modi’s every move from pushing his Digital India initiatives to meeting world leaders is being closely monitored, followed and covered by the Indian press.
While newspapers and magazines are showering praise on his vision and diplomacy, cartoonists are also having a field as they focus on the concerns back home about internet access, privacy and net neutrality, which the Modi government itself is currently grappling with.
Here are some of the cartoons that appeared in major newspapers over the last few days:
