She Is Completely Ignored This Time

Normally, when the Prime Minister goes on an overseas trip, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) plans the visit months in advance.

But Modi’s visit to UAE was a surprise one and was co-ordinated entirely by the PMO and the Crown Prince of UAE. Only at the last minute was the MEA informed about the trip.

There has been much criticism that Sushma Swaraj was not being considered in the foreign affairs scheme of things and that she is being sidelined by the Modi administration.

But the Lalit Modi scandal seems to have resulted in Modi beginning to completely ignore her. In return for being allowed to continue in the Cabinet, Sushma does not figure anymore in Modi’s scheme of things at all.
