"Modi Inaugurates UAE's First Hindu Temple Amid Election Season"

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi opened a grand Hindu temple in the United Arab Emirates, strengthening ties with the Muslim nation ahead of India's upcoming general election. The temple, built at a cost of about $95 million, symbolizes the close relationship between India and the UAE. Modi's visit also included signing agreements to develop a sea and rail trade corridor, showcasing his foreign policy approach and the promotion of Hinduism in Indian politics overseas. However, critics at home argue that religious polarization has increased under Modi's leadership, leading to marginalization of Indian Muslims.
