PM Modi

Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's historic trip to the US on an Official State visit, Congress leader Sam Pitroda has said that the premier of the world's most populous nation deserves respect everywhere and he is "proud" of it.
Pitroda, the chairperson of the Indian Overseas Congress, is currently accompanying Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on his three-city six-day US tour.
While Gandhi has focused on his alternate vision of India as against that of the ruling BJP and has been highly critical of Prime Minister Modi-led government, he has supported the ruling party's foreign policy stands on issues like the war in Ukraine and China.
He (Gandhi) knows where we (India) are doing something right, we are all for it. And you see, someone told me that, the Indian Prime Minister is getting a lot of reception. And I said I'm happy about it because, at the end of the day, he's also my prime minister. But let's not make a mistake. He's getting reception because he's India's prime ministe

Rahul Gandhi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday told members of the Indian American community here that India is currently experiencing a "fight" between two different ideologies and exuded confidence that all opposition parties are joining hands for an "alternative vision" of the country to that of the ruling BJP.
Making his last public appearance during his two-day visit to the US Capitol, Gandhi said that when he meets the non-Congress opposition parties, he has always emphasised that it is very important that they fight unitedly.
Lots of media people like to sort of make BJP larger than life, RSS larger than life. Please look at the Himachal (Pradesh) election. Please look at the Karnataka election. We are going to have elections in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan,... see those elections and you will see that the Congress Party is more than capable of defeating the BJP, a confident-looking Gandhi told members of the Indian American community at a reception hosted in his honour

US President Joe Biden

President Joe Biden is expected to sign legislation on Saturday to raise the debt ceiling, just two days before the US Treasury warned that the country would struggle to pay its bills.
The bipartisan measure, which was approved this week by the House and Senate, eliminates the potential for an unprecedented government default.
Passing this budget agreement was critical. The stakes could not have been higher," Biden said from the Oval Office on Friday evening. Nothing would have been more catastrophic, he said, than defaulting on the country's debt.
The agreement was hashed out by Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, giving Republicans some of their demanded federal spending cuts but holding the line on major Democratic priorities.
It raises the debt limit until 2025  after the 2024 presidential election  and gives legislators budget targets for the next two years in hopes of assuring fiscal stability as the political season heats up.
