PM Modi’s Praise for US President Donald Trump and then Trump’s Praise for PM Modi as his being 'Father of India'???
C. PM Modi’s Praise for US President Donald Trump and then Trump’s Praise for PM Modi as his being 'Father of India'??? Were the Actions and Reactions Being Called ‘Tit for Tat’? It for tat is giving back as much as you got, especially in retaliation for something harmful. ... Tit for tat is meaner — it's when someone does something like hit or steal something from someone, and the other person does something equally nasty back;’ जैसे को तैसा tit for tat, jaise ko taisa, quid proquo, pay one in his own coin’ or the Completely True?
(i) Buzz Word-washing used with adjectives, nouns and verbs to describe the activity of making something seem as if it has certain qualities when in fact this may not be completely true: When Individual feels ashamed and insulted praised in excess beyond the completely truth? “The extremes neither praiseworthy nor right, but worthy of blame… while he who falls short or is not ashamed of anything at all is shameless”: From: ‘Aristotle: Nicomachean Ethics; Virtue as the Mean Between Two Extreme States’
(ii) Narendra Modi is 'Father of India', brought India together: Donald Trump: "I remember India before was very torn, a lot of dissension, a lot of fighting, and he brought it together, like a father," Trump said. IANS| September 25, 2019, 10.24 AM IST: THE ECONOMIC TIMES
(iii) Trump Suggests Prime Minister Narendra Modi Be Known as the 'Father of India': BY ASSOCIATED PRESS SEPTEMBER 24, 2019; (UNITED NATIONS) –– President Donald Trump is suggesting that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi be known as the “father of India” because of his success in uniting the nation. https://time.com/5685129/trump-modi-indian-prime-minister/
D. Mr. Trump’s appearance at the rally and his effusive support for India were a reflection of the community’s influence in U.S. politics. He named fighting “radical Islamic terrorism” as a key common interest of the two countries, spurring a standing ovation by the audience, including Mr. Modi. Mr. Trump also emphasised border security, a controversial topic in both democracies.
E. “Mr. Modi nearly endorsed Mr. Trump’s re-election bid, and the jamboree-‘celebration; a large gathering of members of the Scout or Guide movement, often on an international scale’ was unprecedented for the divisions it created among the diaspora.
F. Civil rights groups and groups of Kashmiris, Dalits and Muslims, who have been critical of Mr. Trump, also called out the Modi government for its policies.
(i) Mr. Modi presented the ending of autonomy for Jammu and Kashmir to the cheering crowd as a significant achievement of this government. The rally galvanised the diaspora in support for Mr. Modi’s politics in India, and enticed-attractive Mr. Trump.
(ii) The rally’s unintended outcomes could be more complex.
(iii) The massive movement of people across national borders has created diasporas that, in turn, have created new political forces.
(iv) This is a particularly sensitive component of global politics. Its enthusiasm for India notwithstanding, aspirations of the diaspora and the priorities of India don’t necessarily converge. Drawing its members too deep into India’s domestic politics, and India’s involvement in their politics, are both fraught-full with risks.
(v) Mr. Modi nearly endorsed Mr. Trump’s re-election bid, and the jamboree-‘celebration; a large gathering of members of the Scout or Guide movement, often on an international scale’ was unprecedented for the divisions it created among the diaspora.
(vi) Civil rights groups and groups of Kashmiris, Dalits and Muslims, who have been critical of Mr. Trump, also called out the Modi government for its policies.
(vii) Democrats by and large took a dim view of the event, and the audience and Mr. Modi greeted Majority Leader in the House of Representatives Steny Hoyer’s reminder that India drew on its strength of Nehruvian secularism with stony silence.
(viii) Mr. Trump’s implied endorsement of Mr. Modi’s Kashmir policy was music to the ears of those in the audience, but the underlying principle of his America First nationalism that it has no role to play globally other than protecting its own interests could lead to outcomes not to India’s liking. The absence of four of the five Indian-American members of the U.S. Congress — all Democrats — at the gathering was also noteworthy.
The transposition of India-Pakistan rivalry into a contest between the two diasporas is also unpleasant.

(ix) Despite what Houston achieved for the two leaders, a line may have been crossed in the mixing of partisan national politics with international diplomacy”. Extract From: UPDATED: SEPTEMBER 24, 2019 10:33 IST: EDITORIAL: Texan outreach: On 'Howdy Modi' event in Houston: THE HINDU:
