The US Delegation appreciates the scale, fairness and transparency of elections and democratic processes in India

Newdelhi:20/6/24:A seven-member US Congressional delegation led by Rep. Michael McCaul, Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, called on Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today.

The other members of the delegation included Rep. Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Gregory Meeks, Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, Rep. Amerish Babulal “Ami Bera” and Rep. Jim McGovern.

The delegation members congratulated the Prime Minister on his election for the historic third consecutive term.

They expressed deep appreciation for the scale, fairness, and transparency of the recently concluded world’s largest democratic electoral exercise in India.

The delegation described India- US relations as the most consequential one and expressed their strong support for further deepening Comprehensive Strategic Global Partnership in all areas, including trade, new and emerging technology, defence, people to people-to-people exchanges.

He reiterated commitment to further strengthen bilateral relations for the global good.

Prime Minister recalled his State Visit to the US in June last year during which he had an opportunity to address a Joint Session of the US Congress for a historic second time.
