Narendra Modi mixes politics and sport at India-Australia fourth Test 1 with Anthony Albanese chariot ride

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi have been feted 2 in front of a roaring crowd of some 50,000 people at the fourth Australia-India cricket test in Ahmedabad. [...]

The prime minister's face has been splashed everywhere in Ahmedabad, [...] on billboards every few metres along main roads, on roundabouts, and at the local cricket stadium – the largest in the world – where Mr Albanese's photo towers over the entry gates. Mr Albanese isn't alone in these photos. Next to him is India Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alongside the slogan “75 years of friendship through cricket”.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese touches down in India for a visit to shore up ties 3 with the South Asian nation as it strives to become the next economic superpower.

It's unheard of to see the prime minister's face so prominently displayed at an international sporting event in Australia [...]. But in India — where Mr Albanese is touring this week — the Modi government is putting on a show. That show is being put on to send a clear message, that India is ready to embrace Australia. [...]

But perhaps the best showcase remains cricket – a game loved in both India and Australia. In a nation where the sport is inextricably linked to politics, there's no better place to cement ties between the countries than on the first day of the fourth Test. The event has been tightly controlled, [...] drawing criticism that it's being managed to present a glorified view of the Indian government. [...]

The Modi government has a history of carefully managed events for visiting leaders from the West. In 2020, ahead of then-US president Donald Trump's visit to Ahmedabad, workers were seen scrubbing up 4 the city and hiding slums, while thousands of Modi supporters were put on the streets to cheer for the leader.

Trust, respect at heart of India-Aus ties: Modi

The deepening ties between India and Australia are rooted in “mutual trust and mutual respect” and the two sides are focused on enhancing connectivity and trade, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said at a diaspora event in Sydney that he addressed alongside his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese.

Speaking to chanting supporters at the 21,000-capacity Qudos Bank Arena, Modi highlighted the role played by the 750,000-strong Indian Australian community in strengthening relations in diverse fields. As a result, he said, India-Australia relations have gone beyond the time they were defined by “three Cs” — Commonwealth, cricket and curry; “three Ds” — democracy, diaspora and dosti; 1 and “three Es” — energy, economy and education.

The biggest contributor to the India-Australia relationship, Modi said, is “mutual trust and mutual respect”, developed not just due to diplomatic relations but also because of the Indian diaspora’s contributions. “You are the real strength of it,” he said, speaking in Hindi. [...]

Direct flights between India and Australia have increased, and their number will grow further in coming days and the recognition of each other’s educational degrees will benefit students, he said. The two sides have reached an agreement on a migration and mobility partnership that will make it easier for skilled Indian professionals to come and work in Australia, he added.

Modi also announced the opening of a new deputy high commission in Brisbane to meet a longstanding demand of the Indian diaspora. “Very soon, a consulate will be opened in Brisbane,” he said.

Both the diaspora and India’s population of 1.4 billion have a dream of seeing a developed country, he said. “India has no dearth 2 of capability or resources, today the world’s biggest and youngest talent factory is in India,” Modi added, listing among India’s achievements the world’s fastest vaccination programme and fastest growing large economy. [...]

Albanese announced that the new Centre for Australia-India Relations will be based at Parramatta, a suburb of Sydney.

“Now we want to see more connections — more Australian and Indian students living and studying in each other’s countries... More business leaders and artists and families sharing your experiences, and your knowledge, and your ideas,” he said.
