US Vice President JD Vance’s wife, Usha Vance, on Monday heaped praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his hospitality after the Vance family visited India in April.Usha said meeting PM Modi was very special, and her kids put him in the “grandfather category” after meeting him.“Meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, that was really very special. My kids saw him — they were sort of sleep-deprived in Paris, and they saw an Indian man with a white beard and white hair, and they just put him in the grandfather category immediately,” Usha said.“They are very into him; they just love him, and he really cemented his status by giving our five-year-old a birthday present that day. When we were able to visit his home, they just sort of ran up. They were hugging him. He was just incredibly kind and generous to them,” said US Second Lady Usha Vance on meeting PM Modi during their visit to India.Usha claimed that JD Vance had a very productive conversation with PM Modi, and the visit was a real opportunity for them to “cement the personal relationship.”“I think it was a very productive conversation for JD Vance and the Prime Minister (Narendra Modi), of course. But also, I think it was a real opportunity for us to kind of cement that personal relationship that they have, which I think is only to the good,” she said.“There was a puppet show that was a particular highlight, with sort of puppeteering from all over the country, including from Andhra Pradesh, where my family is from. There were bits from the Ramayana, there were sort of comedic bits with animals, and it was a huge hit. My kids have been trying to recreate it at home with construction paper,” said US Second Lady Usha Vance on meeting PM Modi and their visit to India.JD Vance, along with his family, was on a four-day visit to India, which was also his first official visit to the country since assuming office.JD Vance is married to Usha Chilukuri Vance, a Yale Law graduate and accomplished attorney whose family hails from Andhra Pradesh. Fluent in Telugu and deeply connected to her cultural heritage, Usha is one of the most prominent Indian-American women in conservative legal circles. She’s also been a transformative influence in JD’s life—not just personally, but spiritually.
