Modi invites Bush to Gujarat
GANDHINAGAR: Days after he was refused a visa to visit the US, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi invited President George Bush to visit his state.
Addressing a convention of the Asian-American Hotel Owners' Association (AAHOA) in the US through video-conferencing, Modi asked Bush to come and see the culture of Gujarat.
The US had last week denied a visa to Modi, citing his role in Gujarat' sectarian violence in 2002.
Modi was then set for a six-day visit to the US to address a public meeting in New Jersey and to attend the AAHOA's convention in Florida.
Modi addressed the New Jersey public meet over a webcast Monday morning.
