Prime Minister Narendra Modi is in Chennai for a two-day informal summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping. He arrived in Mamallapuram on Friday and held talks with Xi Jinping over trade, terror and more.

Ahead of his tête-à-tête with Xi on Saturday – day two of the summit- PM Modi took down to the scenic sight for a refreshing plogging session – walk and exercises.

Plogging is a fitness trend that began in Sweden in 2016. It was given its name by Erik Ahlström, who is a ski and running enthusiast. The word combines “jogging” and “plocka upp,” which is Swedish for “pick up”.
