Mary Millben, the award-winning singer, is set to perform in Washington, D.C., during the upcoming visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other guests at a diaspora reception hosted by the United States Indian Community Foundation (USICF) at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Centre.
The Steering Committee has invited Millben to perform for PM Modi during his official visit to the US from June 21–23. Millben will be part of the 9th International Day of Yoga at the UN Headquarters with PM Modi on the UNHQ North Lawn.
Millben said: “I have great anticipation and excitement as the Prime Minister visits the United States next week. This visit celebrates the U.S.-India relationship, the world’s two largest democracies, and the most important relationship in the world today,” said Millben.
“I look forward to welcoming Prime Minister Modi for this first event in the United States alongside United Nations General Assembly President Csaba Korosi, Ambassador Ruchira Kamobj, and New York City Mayor Eric Adams,” she said.
“I wish to express my gratitude to the Steering Committee for the considerate invitation. This year’s G20 Summit’s slogan, “One earth, one family, one future,” is appropriate given that the Prime Minister will be visiting the United States the following week.
This phrase summarises the spirit of the significant democratic relationship between India and the United States. It is a privilege to perform for this significant Diaspora gathering in Washington, D.C., to welcome Prime Minister Modi.
