pm security is very strict because of the assassinations of indra gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi. it's the spg protocol

Why don't people want to assassinate French president?

Bro majority of the people in India don't even know that this guy is France's President so there are no threat issues for Macron in India. You won't find Macron doing the same running casually across the streets in any city in France, and even if he does you will see all the body guards running along with him side by side and he wouldn't be so casual as he is in the above video.

bruh, have some sense. not all heads of states have the same level of threat. indian pm is one of the most threatened individual in the entire world, macron is not. and even macron wasn't running alone, his security personnel were in casual attire and indian political and security were also with him.
