Prince William's hands failed to take Modi's firm hand shake
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s infamous ‘iron grip’ has claimed its latest victim, and this time it is none other than Prince William.
Modi exchanged a long and firm handshake with the Duke while posing for the cameras when he met the former and his wife, Duchess Catherine of Cambridge, on the steps of Hyderabad House, New Delhi.
When the Prime Minister released his grip, the Prince’s right hand had a very noticeable imprint, clearly a consequence of Modi’s firm handshake.
As a close up of Prince William’s hands was released by the media, it led to a series of reactions on social media.
LOL! Zoom in & take a look at William's hand. https://t.co/ipiHthaoxi

William, as expected of a British royal, maintained his composure and smiled for the cameras.
