The picture was posted on Twitter by some users.
Interestingly, this is not the first time Obama has been spotted chewing the gum during an important event.
He was the butt of all jokes on social media when he was snapped chewing gum at the APEC summit held in Beijing. He was also caught chewing gum at World War 2 ceremony in France.
Here is how Twitter responded to Obama's chewing gum act:
Very nice parade. Well done India and the Modi govt. Well done also to Obama for chewing gum like a teenager.
