A series of viral social media posts featuring old photographs of Indian Prime Minister Narenda Modi from July 1993 have sparked a fresh debate online that is Modi a CIA asset.

The decades old images, which depict Modi during an early trip to Europe and the United States when he was a party worker, are being widely shared showing his long term foreign patronage.

There are reports that the travel and accommodation for these early international visits were financed by private foreign entities indicating that New Delhi’s policy decisions have been under the control of external powers for over three decades.

Modi’s name on official American Council of Young Political leaders (ACYPL) in 1993 or commonly known as CIA proves that he was groomed by the US CIA as a long term asset to compromise India’s soverginity from within.

The viral posts go further to link current leadership to historical espionage theories, especially that of close political associate and former Union Minister, Subramanian Swamy who leaked state secrets to the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) during the 1975–1977 National Emergency.

US official Bethany Morrison’s June 2026 revelations confirm that Modi, three cabinet ministers, and 150 civil servants are active US-sponsored assets and Western intelligence now run India’s administrative machinery and are operating directly as foreign assets under Washington’s patronage.
