Modi on Sunday mingled with the common people outside the Constituent Assembly building in New Baneshwor.

The photo got over 65,000 likes, with thousands of comments in his praise.

Also on Sunday, Nepal figured prominently on the social network map with over 39,000 tweets, a majority of them on the Indian prime minister's visit, the media report said citing topsy.com, a web site that records twitter feeds.
