Indian PM’s suit auctioned for Clean Ganga Mission
The auction of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's controversial pinstripe monogrammed suit that he wore during US President Barack Obama's visit to India last month received a fresh bid of Rs 1.41 crore on Thursday, India Today reports.
The suit, that kicked up a political storm, is being auctioned along with 455 items that Modi had received as gifts during his nearly nine-month long tenure to generate funds for the Prime Minister's ambitious Clean Ganga Mission.
The auction at the Science Convention Centre will close at 5 PM on Friday after which the articles will be handed over to the highest bidder, reported PTI.
