New Delhi, April 13: After the National Creators Award, the fun side of Prime Minister Narendra Modi was witnessed again during his interaction with India’s top gamers on Saturday. Seeing a unique side of PM Modi, the gamers gave him the title of “NaMo OP”, where ‘OP’ means “overpowered”. He interacted with gamers - Tirth Mehta, Payal Dhar, Animesh Agarwal, Anshu Bisht, Naman Mathur, Mithilesh Patankar, and Ganesh Gangadhar - on a host of issues related to the gaming industry.

The gamers not only interacted with PM Modi but also played video games with him. After a few rounds of gaming, the prime minister laughed and remarked, “Bhagwaan kare mujhe iski aadat na lage (I pray to God I don’t get addicted to this).”

Further, the gamers then taught PM Modi some gaming terminologies like “grind”, which they said means “working hard”. Another word that they mentioned was “noob” — a newbie, whose participation and interactions display a lack of skill or knowledge.

The gamers thought PM Narendra Modi did not know the meaning but his gestures said something else. Even before explaining the meaning of the word, PM Modi had begun laughing. He couldn’t control his laughter and took a swipe at his opponent (hinting at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi), "If I use this word during elections, people will wonder who am I referring to. If I say it, you will assume it for a particular person".
 
 

The impressed gamers commented, “Sir already knows the meaning of this term”. This video went viral on social media with netizens commenting that PM Modi took a veiled dig at the Opposition specifically Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
 
 
PM Modi also taught them his gaming-like terminology “P2G2”, which is said means “Pro People, Good Governance”.

Towards the end of the interaction, PM Modi donned a virtual headset and tried his hands at gaming. While sharing thoughts about the meeting with PM Modi, one of them remarked, "Dekh mummy, tera beta Modi ji se milke aaya hai (Look mom, your son met Prime Minister Modi)". The session ended with elated gamers playing video games with PM Modi.
