Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, despite having a hectic two-day visit to Washington, D.C., Feb. 12 and 13, for a summit meeting with President Donald Trump, found time to meet with Indian American businessman Vivek Ramaswamy at Blair House, Feb.

Following the meeting Modi posted pictures on his X handle, saying “Met Mr. @VivekGRamaswamy  and his father-in-law in Washington DC. We talked about diverse issues including innovation, culture and more.”

Ramaswamy, who briefly ran a campaign for the Republican primaries for President, and then was highly visible and active as one of President Trump’s surrogates, has expressed his intention to run for Governor of Ohio. He worked briefly with Tesla founder Elon Musk, as part of the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, before quitting for a potential run for Ohio Governor.
