  • Preparations

    Shah is in Ahmedabad to ensure everything goes seamless

  • This is the first time First Lady Melania and Trump's daughter Ivanka are traveling together on an official visit to another nation. Considering how high the stakes are, officials have been pulling all-nighters.

    Foreign Secretary Harsh Vardhan Shringla overlooked the preparations till late last night, and Amit Shah, the Union Home Minister and Number 2 in government, reached Ahmedabad to monitor everything.

  • Quote

    India and US' relationship has evolved: Shringla

  • "The relationship with the US has evolved into one of our most consequential relationships today. It is a strategic partnership based on shared values and geared towards the 21st century," Shringla said. Notably, this will be Trump and PM Modi's fifth meeting in eight months.

  • Tellingly, Trump loves a massive crowd, he was bewildered when he saw lakhs cheering for PM Modi in Houston. And in a foreign country, perhaps no one could have given him such an enormous welcome.

    As the two leaders will share the stage today, one can expect a lot of hugging, praises, and hand-holding. In the end, a spectacular event is in the offing.
