Making PM feel welcome in US:
Shalab Kumar who is one of the member of the US Congress Welcome Committee for PM Modi wa quoted to have said that, "We are in welcome committee for PM Modi to US Capitol. It will be exciting event where entire Government of US will be present. Phenomenal opportunity for India to extend hand of friendship to America via their chosen representatives. It will be like a red carpet welcome for PM Modi".
Support for PM in US:
Aaron Schlock, former Member of US Congress, was very candid as he fondly talked about him being a fan of PM Modi from PM's days as Gujarat's Chief Minister. He was quoted to have said that, "I met PM Modi many years ago, was a fan and supporter of his work in Gujarat. PM Modi turned Gujarat around; now he is a captain of a larger ship, so we should give him time. He is making progress. Surely Pakistan, surely China are not nearly as dependable as India. So to sell arms and planes to India is a smart play for US".
He further added that, "We tried very hard to allow for the travel permission for Modi. But the resounding victory Indians gave Modi is what did it. President Obama's was one of the first phone calls to him. But many of us who have been with Modi from the beginning know who his true friends are and he knows who his true friends are".
Meeting Defense Secretary:
Before Prime Minister arrived for the round table, US Secretary of Defence Ashton Carter had called on him at Blair House.
