PM Narendra Modi had a bit of a technical issue yesterday while addressing the World Economic Forum’s Davos Agenda summit online. To the naked eye, it would appear that Modi’s teleprompter went off and the Indian PM was at a loss of words.
Naturally, once the clip went on Twitter, Desi people did what they do best!

All jokes aside, please note that fact-checkers have mentioned that Teleprompters are generally placed in front of the person reading the speech and so Modi’s glitch doesn’t seem to have originated due to teleprompter issues.
Here is WEF version of PM Modi's speech, someone in the background says, "Sir aap unse ek baar poochen, ki sab jud gaye kya?".

Doesn't look like it's teleprompter issue. Later in his 20 min speech, He doesn't look sideways. TP could be at the front.pic.twitter.com/zVUqhEU5rH
Well, it’s still funny. So, keep the memes coming
