Dallas/IBNS: Leader of Opposition in Loka Sabha Rahul Gandhi arrived in the US state of Dallas where he was given a grand welcome by members of the Indian diaspora and the Indian Overseas Congress (IOC).

The Congress leader shared the pictures of his welcome on Facebook and wrote: "I am truly delighted by the warm welcome I've received in Dallas, Texas, USA, from the Indian Diaspora and members of the Indian Overseas Congress."

"I eagerly look forward to engaging in meaningful discussions and insightful conversations that will further strengthen the bond between our two nations during this visit," he said.

This is Gandhi's first trip to the US since the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

The senior Congress leader will be in Dallas on Sunday and then head to Washington DC where he will stay for two days.

Earlier, announcing Rahul Gandhi's visit, IOC chief Sam Pitroda said that the Indian diaspora, including NRI residents, technocrats, business leaders, and students, are eager to interact with the Congress leader.
