As Indian Americans eagerly await to accord a warm welcome to Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his first state visit to the US on June 21, a resident of Maryland, United States, flaunted his car number plate “NMODI” as he called the PM an inspiration.
“I took the NMODI number plate in 2016, which was also his second year in the US, after getting inspired by the Prime Minister,” Raghavendra told ANI.
Initially, authorities denied giving him a number plate titled ‘NARENDRA MODI’ but later he edited it to ‘NMODI’ which was accepted.
