Modi gets lesser sleep: Obama
New Delhi, Jan 25
US President Barack Obama
Sunday said he and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared notes on
how much sleep they get, and revealed that "Modi gets lesser sleep".
Replying
to a question about what the two leaders discussed during their meeting
earlier in the day, Obama said it was not possible to reveal the
content of their talks.
"But we did discuss how much sleep we
were getting," Obama joked at the end of a joint press conference at
Hyderabad House here, while Modi laughed at the revelation.
Obama
said this was probably because PM Modi was still new at his job and
after a few years, Modi will probably get an extra hour of sleep.
