Ahmedabad: Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to greet US President Donald Trump in a massive roadshow in Ahmedabad before he arrives at the newly-built Motera cricket stadium Monday.

Dance groups and singers from different parts of the country will be performing on stages dotting the 22-km route of the ‘India roadshow’ in the city that has been spruced up for Trump’s visit. There is one stage for every state on the route.

‘Namaste Trump’ will be similar to the landmark ‘Howdy, Modi!’ event hosted by the Indian-American community in honour of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to Houston in September 2019.
