Recently, İyad el-Baghdadi, an Arab Spring activist with a penchant for the witty noticed something rather odd about our Prime Minister. He observed that Narendra Modi likes getting up close and personal with everyone he meets, whether they like it or not. It’s inexplicably weird and funny. Scroll on below, but be warned, the cringe-o-meter is getting a workout in this one.

So he noticed this image of Modi and Putin walking along without a care in the world. 

And it led him down a path of discovery and, I’m guessing, confusing regret.

It didn’t end there though, İyad also noticed something about this chronic hugger that we Indians have been pondering about for a while now. THIS!

Why you tuggin’ on them ears man?! It’s weird!

You have to admit, this dude makes some pretty astute observations. Will we ever know why Modi does what he does? I doubt it.
