This time India has a strong chance in the US presidential election. Whether Donald Trump wins or the current president Joe Biden, India is sure to get this gift. People are calling it ‘Double India Connection’. In the coming days, its impact will also be seen on world politics.
India’s role is important in America’s eyes. America sees India as a geopolitical alternative or counterpart to China. That is why Trump and Biden have made it clear even before the election that they are going to move forward with India. According to experts, even if Biden is elected US President, the relationship between India and America will continue as it is now. But Trump has already praised Modi. When Trump came to Gujarat in 2020, thousands of Indians welcomed him. But one connection is very special. Whichever Vice President wins, there will definitely be an Indian connection.

At the same time, JD Bains, whom Trump has announced as the Vice Presidential candidate, also has an Indian connection. His wife Usha Chilukuri Bains is of Indian origin. Despite living in America, both have a deep connection with India.
