Memories of 'Namaste Trump' program

It was the largest event organized outside the country by any US President. During that time too, Trump praised Modi's friendship and strong ties with India.

Contribution to India-US relations

The friendship of Trump and Modi has played an important role in strengthening the bilateral relations between India and America.
