## Resource

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a massive splash in Melbourne, drawing tens of thousands to Marvel Stadium for a star-studded welcome that rivaled a rock concert — complete with drummers, chants, and a high-profile appearance by Aussie PM Albanese. But the vibe wasn’t all unity: counter-protesters waved signs and shouted criticisms over human rights and religious persecution, highlighting the global divide around Modi’s leadership. Police kept things orderly as the event unfolded, showcasing the tension between passionate diaspora support and international scrutiny — a powerful reminder of how global leaders stir complex, polarized reactions on foreign soil.
