US President Donald Trump on Sunday embarked on his two-day maiden visit to India, scheduled to reach Ahmedabad on Monday morning. Speaking to reporters before boarding the Air Force One, Trump revealed that he had committed to the visit a long time back.
“…I am excited about the visit. …Prime Minister Modi is a very good friend,” he said.
The US President noted that though he would be in India for just a night, he still was very much looking forward to attending the ‘biggest event’ India has ever had, referring to the Namaste Trump event scheduled at 1:05 PM at the Motera Stadium.
“I have to fly back and attend a rally in South Carolina… There is little rest…,” said Trump.
