Macron, who is on a visit to India and will be the chief guest at the Republic Day ceremony, arrived in Rajasthan’s Jaipur earlier today and participated in a roadshow with PM Modi.
The two leaders visited a local shop near Hawa Mahal in Jaipur, where PM Modi could be seen explaining the UPI system to macron.
UPI is a system that powers multiple bank accounts into a single mobile application (of any participating bank), merging several banking features, seamless fund routing, and merchant payments into one hood.
It allows users to transfer money through their mobile device round the clock.
In a video of the two leaders interacting outside the shop, PM Modi also shows a replica of the newly inaugurated Ayodhya Ram Temple to Macron.
Earlier today, Macron arrived at Amber Fort in Rajasthan’s Jaipur.
He also met school students who gathered there to welcome him.
On his visit to the fort, the French President was accompanied by external affairs minister S Jaishankar and Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Diya Kumari.
At the fort, Macron posed for a picture with Jaishankar and Diya Kumari.
As the French President walked around the Royal fort and took in the unique architecture, he was also given an overview of the history the fort carries. Macron appreciated Rajasthani painting and art and also interacted with artists at Amber Fort.
