Modi is currently on a visit to the US . Rao termed Modi and Trump as unconventional global leaders. “PM Modi is a tea seller boy, who rose from rock bottom to earn respect within the party and from millions of Indians to get elected as the Prime Minister of India,” he said. President Trump, Rao said, is a multi-billionaire businessman, who had nothing to do with politics, never been an active politician but has risen with massive popular support to be elected as US President. “Both have almost achieved the impossible, with distinctly different backgrounds , which in the natural course wouldn’t have got them here. They are certainly unconventional leaders,” he added. According to him, while the two are very unique people with different backgrounds, and from extremely dissimilar socioeconomic strata and of course from two different continents, they do have amazing similarities. “These strong similarities can actually drive a strong rapport and trust between the two and can certainly ensure an unusual bonhomie between the two leaders, going ahead,” Rao reckoned.
