Modi had worn the pinstripe monogrammed bandhgala suit during US President Barack Obama's visit to India last month. A Surat-based textile businessmen put in a bid of Rs 1.21 crore for the suit on the first day of the three-day auction.
The suit that created waves and kicked up a political storm was put up for auction along with 455 items that Modi had received as gifts during his nearly nine-month long tenure as prime minister to generate funds for his 'Clean Ganga Mission'.
