Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Washington, D.C., and met with Tulsi Gabbard, the recently elected director of national intelligence.
This was one of the first meetings among many in Modi’s packed US schedule. Modi has a full itinerary in the US, including meetings with President Donald Trump, and this was one of the first of many.
In addition to congratulating Tulsi Gabbard on her appointment as Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, PM Modi shared a brief video of his conversation with her, saying they talked about the bond between India and the United States.
In a post on social media, he wrote, “Met USA’s Director of National Intelligence, @TulsiGabbard in Washington DC. Congratulated her on her confirmation. Discussed various aspects of the India-USA friendship, of which she’s always been a strong votary.
A sizable contingent of Indian diaspora greeted Modi, who is on a two-day visit to the US, and he thanked them
“A warm reception in the winter chill! Despite the cold weather, the Indian diaspora in Washington DC has welcomed me with a very special welcome. My gratitude to them,” he wrote on social media.
