Modi's Strategic Meeting with President Murmu Amid Political and Economic Tensions

On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with President Droupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan. This high-profile meeting occurs amidst a deadlock in Parliament due to the opposition's demand for a discussion on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise in Bihar prior to the Assembly elections.

Aside from sparse discussions on Operation Sindoor, Parliament has experienced a halt in business since the commencement of the Monsoon session on July 21. The meeting between Prime Minister Modi and President Murmu adds further intrigue into the ongoing political dynamics.

Compounding the domestic political scene, international relations have turned tense following US President Donald Trump's imposition of 25 percent tariffs on Indian exports and unspecified sanctions for India's acquisition of Russian military assets and oil. The implications of Modi's recent discussions with President Murmu might prove crucial in navigating these geopolitical and domestic challenges.
