Taking to Twitter, Trump shared an image from the 'Namaste Trump' event held earlier today in Ahmedabad and captioning it, "Our two national constitutions both begin with the same three beautiful words: 'We the people'. That means that in America and India alike, we honour, respect, trust, empower, and fight for the citizens we proudly serve!"

The following tweet attached another picture from the 'Namaste Trump' event, showing him standing alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi before a huge crowd of around 1,00,000 people inside the Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad.

(I have come to India, with goodwill and love, so that we can expand our partnership as per our ambitions)".

The US President is undertaking a two-day visit to India. Earlier he visited the Taj Mahal with First Lady Mela Trump, Trump's daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner.
