Here's British PM Theresa May Looking Gorgeous In A Saree

  • Here's British PM Theresa May Looking Gorgeous In A Saree
While PM Narendra Modi was the first Indian prime minister to visit the UK in nearly a decade, British PM Theresa May reciprocated the gesture by choosing India as the first destination outside Europe for her bilateral talks.
 
Amidst cries about the UK visa issue, ​Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday said, "I did say that... the UK seems to want access to the Indian market, the UK seems to want Indian investments, but the UK does not seem to want Indian talent... This is not an impression or perception that UK can afford to have," the minister added.
 
Putting hard-nosed diplomacy aside May took out time to visit the Sree Someshwara Swamy Temple in Bengaluru on Tuesday afternoon clad in sariand we must say she really pulled of the look.
 

Earlier in 2015, Samantha Cameron, wife of former PM David Cameron, wore a crimson-coloured sari to Wembley Stadium for PM Modi's speech. David Cameron too had voiced Modi's tune in Wembley then, by saying, "acche din zaroor aayega."
 
 
May who is on a three day visit to India, arrived in Bengaluru on Tuesday.
 
Her ​itinerary for the day consisted of a visit to government primary school, meeting with Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, visit to a high tech manufacturing unit that produces parts for global aircraft maker Airbus and also a meeting with a SME business delegation.
 
She discussed industrial and other projects in Karnataka connected to Great Britain with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.
 
On Monday, India-UK CEO Forum and UK-India Tech Summit were held, which was attended by PMs of both the countries. India and United Kingdom also signed two Memoranda of Understanding (MoU)s for cooperation in the field of intellectual property and ease of doing business as part of efforts to improve ties between the two countries.
 
She will leave for London on her state aircraft 'Voyager'' on Tuesday evening.
