Modi invites Tinubu to BRICS summit in India

On August 13, 2026, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited Nigerian President Bola Tinubu to the BRICS summit scheduled to be held in New Delhi, India. The invitation was reported by The Nation Newspaper, highlighting diplomatic engagement between the two countries. In a separate development, opposition leader Rahul Gandhi mocked the BJP, claiming that PM Modi does not sleep at night and that Home Minister Amit Shah has disappeared, suggesting that India is expressing itself. The headlines also include a profile of Nidhi Tiwari, Modi's private secretary, and a historical piece about Sir Cyril Radcliffe drawing India's borders, but these are not directly related to the main story.
