Several high profile Indians will be accompanying US President Donald Trump during his visit to India.

Indian-Americans in top government positions view Trump’s India visit as an opportunity to send a message to the immigrant community in the US.

Indian Americans that are most likely to accompany the US president are Rita Baranwal, Prem Parameswaran, Bimal Patel, Manisha Singh, Ajit Pai, Seema Verma, Kash Patel and Sampat Shivangi.

This is an election year for Trump and he is likely to use the optics around his Delhi and Ahmedabad visits to reach out to the Indian-American electorate back home.
