JAIPUR: Pink City is prepping up to host US vice-president J D Vance, his wife Usha and the couple’s three children on April 22 during their India visit.
The part personal, part official trip will see Vance engage with industry leaders and govt officials in Jaipur, apart from visiting Amber Fort and City Palace. He is also scheduled to address an industry function on ‘Trade and Technology’.
Security arrangements have been intensified in the city ahead of Vance’s visit. Sources said the US second family is likely to arrive in Jaipur on April 21, following the vice-president’s formal dinner engagement with PM Narendra Modi in Delhi earlier in the evening.
State officials involved in the preparations said multiple security agencies had begun groundwork to ensure a smooth and secure stay for the visiting dignitary and his family. A team of officials conducted a security survey at the Amber Fort. The second family is expected to depart for Agra on the morning of April 23.
