Modi`s tours 5 nations in 140 hours |
A 140-hour long trip covering five nations including the US, 45-plus engagements over five days and flying for nearly 44 hours, bulk of it at night, to cover nearly 33,000 kilometers - this in nutshell is how Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going about his present foreign trip.Two of his hosts, Mexico and Afghanistan , are not seeing a night halt by the PM, with him spending just about four hours apiece in both nations. The detailed travel itinerary of the Prime Minister, accessed by ET, underscores a new thumb rule dictated by Modi in his recent trips - not staying the night in a foreign land if no engagement is scheduled in that country the next day and rather use the night for air travel to the next destination for achieving shorter trips. In fact, the Prime Minister would be travelling back home from Mexico, a nearly 21-hour journey, mostly through the night with just a two-hour technical stopover in Frankfurt. He will arrive in Delhi at 5 AM on June 10, and attend to a working day.
