The 40-year-old politician, who recently launched her campaign for the upcoming elections in September, was seen visiting a 'Radha Krishna Mandir' in Auckland. The PM was seen removing her shoes before entering the temple and then participated in the 'aarti'. Several pictures and videos of the politician's visit to the temple have been shared online by the Indian diaspora, including Muktesh Pardeshi, the Indian envoy to New Zealand.
