Though US' President elect Donald Trump had copied Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's election slogan of "Abki baar Modi sarkar"(this time Narendra modi Government) and modified it to "Abki baar Trump sarkar"(this time Donald Trump Government), there are several differences between the leaders of world's two largest democracies.

Besides the similarity of the slogan, Narendra Modi and Donald Trump have other things in common too - such as, both of them got selected by their respective BJP and Republican Party as the their faces despite massive resistance, both were outsiders to the establishment and both carry an anti-Muslim image.

But the differences between Donald Trump and Narendra Modi are

1. BILLIONAIRE VERSUS CHAIWALA

While Donald Trump inherited billions of dollars from his father, Narendra Modi was born in a humble family and was a chaiwala. The US' President-elect got control of his father Fred Trump's real estate and construction firm and he renamed it The Trump Organization.

On the other hand, Narendra Modi assisted his father in selling tea in Gujarat, while his mother worked as a help to earn a livelihood.

2. LIFESTYLE

Being a billionaire, Donald Trump led a lavish lifestyle. He has appeared at the Miss USA pageants, which he owned from 1996 to 2015. He has also made cameo appearances in films and TV series. He hosted and co-produced The Apprentice, a reality television series on NBC, from 2004 to 2015. As of 2016, he was listed by Forbes as the 324th wealthiest person in the world, and 156th in the US.

As against Donald Trump's extravagant lifestyle, Narendra Modi leads a simple life. His 90-year-old mother has been seen travelling in auto-rickshaws. She lives in a simple house in Gujarat's capital Gandhinagar. Narendra Modi's other relatives too live a modest life.

3. MUCH MARRIED VERSUS SINGLE

Donald Trump has been married three times and has five children. Apart from this, his relationship with women is very much controversial. A few days before the US Presidential elections, a 2005 video and audio clipping surfaced in which Donald Trump was heard bragging about groping, kissing and trying to have sex with women.

In stark contrast, Narendra Modi leads the life of a recluse. He is single after having left his wife in his teenage years to meditate and work for the nation. He does not have any children.

4. SABKA SAATH SABKA VIKAS VERSUS PAROCHIAL

Narendra Modi's election campaign hovered around the slogans "Sabka saath sabka vikas" and "Ek Bharat shreshth Bharat". He pledged to take all sections of the society along.

However, Donald Trump's election campaign was divisive, parochial and controversial. He spoke against Islam, proposed a ban on the entry of Muslims into the US. He also spoke against the Blacks, Hispanics and women. He wanted a wall to be built along the US-Mexican border.

5. POLITICAL NOVICE VERSUS SEASONED

Donald Trump's political rise has been belated but sudden and sharp. He sought presidential nomination in 2000 from the Reform Party. However, he withdrew before voting began. In June 2015, Trump announced his candidacy for president as a Republican. He emerged fast as the front-runner for his party's nomination. In May 2016, his rivals in the Grand Old Party suspended their campaigns. In July, he was formally nominated for the president's post at the 2016 Republican National Convention.

On the contrary, Narendra Modi has worked hard to gradually rise in politics. He worked at the lowest rung of the RSS and slowly became a Pracharak. Subsequently, he was sent to BJP as RSS' representative. He rose to first become Gujarat's Chief Minister in 2001. He was the state's CM for four terms before becoming India's PM.
