US Congressman from Georgia, Rich McCormick, has exuded confidence that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would be re-elected in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. McCormick, a decorated veteran and emergency room physician, represents Georgia’s 6th Congressional District, which has a sizable Indian American population.
In an interview with news agency PTI, the Republican lawmaker said “Prime Minister Modi is incredibly popular. I was just over there. I actually had lunch with Prime Minister Modi and several other congressmen, and to see his popularity across party lines really. Somebody who I think is around 70 percent popular. He is going to be prime minister again.”
“To see his progressive outlook on economy, on development, on goodwill towards all people, to see his application and positivity to the Indian people in the diaspora worldwide is going to affect the global economy, their strategic relationships. I look forward to his influence in a very positive way,” he said in response to a question.
