New Delhi/Washington | Kicking off a whirlwind 36-hour visit to India that emphasises pageantry over policy, President Donald Trump received a warm welcome on Monday on the subcontinent, including a mega-rally, meant to reaffirm ties while providing enviable overseas imagery for a president in a re-election year.
As Air Force One touched down in Ahmedabad in western India, the final preparations were underway for that day's enviable trio of presidential photo opportunities: a visit to a former home of independence leader Mohandas Gandhi , a rally at the world's second-largest stadium and a trip to the famed Taj Mahal.
