Shivani Jaiswal , Sikkim - Narendra Modi took a short break from his busy election campaign and played football with young people in Sikkim on Tuesday. Instead of his usual kurta, he wore track pants and sports shoes, showing a different and more relaxed side.
This happened just a day after his rallies in West Bengal, where elections are coming soon. Football is very popular in Bengal, and many people love the sport deeply.
Because of this, many believe the timing of this football game is important. It may be a way to connect with people in Bengal by showing interest in something they love.
Videos and photos of Modi playing football quickly spread on social media. Some people liked this moment and said it made him look friendly and active. Others felt it was a planned move to attract voters.
As elections get closer, such actions show how leaders use simple and cultural activities to connect with people and gain attention.
