Indian Overseas Congress (IOC) President Sam Pitroda has released a video announcement detailing the much-anticipated visit of Rahul Gandhi to the United States. Scheduled to visit Dallas, Texas, on September 8, 2024, and Washington D.C. on September 9-10, 2024, Gandhi's trip marks a significant milestone in his role as the Leader of the Opposition in India's Lok Sabha.

Overview of the Visit
In his video, Pitroda highlighted the strong demand from the Indian diaspora for interactions with Gandhi since he assumed his leadership role. Pitroda, who leads the IOC with a presence in 32 countries, mentioned the diverse group of individuals and organizations eager to engage with Gandhi during his brief visit to the U.S. The visit will include interactions with students, academicians, technocrats, community leaders, and media representatives.

Dallas Engagements
Gandhi's visit to Dallas will feature a series of high-profile events. On September 8, he will engage with the University of Texas community, which includes students, faculty, and local residents. The visit will include a large community gathering designed to facilitate dialogue between Gandhi and the local Indian-American population. A key highlight will be a dinner with Dallas area leaders, providing an opportunity for in-depth discussions on various issues.

The Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) area, which is home to one of the largest Indian American populations in the U.S., is particularly excited about Gandhi's visit. The DFW metroplex boasts an estimated 235,000 Indian American residents, making it a significant hub for the community. The area has seen considerable growth over the past few decades, evolving from a small group of professionals into a diverse population that now includes a substantial number of IT specialists, educators, and entrepreneurs.
