Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with South Korean President Moon Jae-in took a ride in Delhi Metro on Monday ahead of their visit to the Samsung plant in Noida. Commoners were surprised to see the two leaders in the metro as they waved to them and even posed for selfies. The South Korean President is on a three-day visit to India, having arrived in New Delhi on Sunday evening. He and his wife, Kim Jung-sook, were received by Minister of State (MoS) for External Affairs General (retd) VK Singh. South Korea has been playing a pivotal part in the making of Delhi Metro. This is not the first time when Prime Minister Modi took a foreign dignitary on a metro ride.
