PM meets Tulsi Gabbard, presents her with pot of water brought from Kumbh

Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with Tulsi Gabbard, US Director of National Intelligence, in New Delhi on Monday where he presented her water from the river Ganga, which was collected during the Maha Kumbh. In return, Gabbard gifted him a Tulsi Mala.

The meeting took place just hours after Gabbard met with Defence Minister Rajnath Singh. Their discussions in the national capital centered on anti-India activities on American soil, particularly those linked to the banned Khalistani outfit, Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), according to a report by India Today.

As a practicing Hindu, Gabbard has previously shared in an interview with ANI that she draws strength and guidance from Lord Krishna’s teachings in the Bhagavad Gita during both challenging and positive times.
