Eric Garcetti, the outgoing US Ambassador to India, penned down an emotional note calling the country his second home, as he said that his heart is full as he leaves as a 'lifelong friend and supporter' of India-US friendship. In a post on X, Garcetti said India had given him a 'family of friends' and lasting memories. 

Earlier, Garcetti met PM Modi, and he acknowledged his and US President Joe Biden's contribution to US-India ties. On his meeting with PM Modi, he said, "Had a great final visit with PM Modi with my family. It’s clear that he and President Biden have raised our compelling and consequential U.S.-India partnership to new heights."

As he is set to return to the US, Garcetti is on a spree to meet Indian leaders. He met BJP President JP Nadda on Saturday as he posted on X, "I had a productive discussion with Health Minister JP Nadda on US-India health priorities. Grateful for India’s longstanding partnership with the United States in advancing #globalhealth and looking forward to even deeper collaboration in the years ahead." 

Moreover, he was also present with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar in Bengaluru on the occasion of dedicating the site for the US Consulate in the city. Notably, this will be the fifth US consulate in India, aimed at deepening the longstanding ties between New Delhi and Washington.

Meanwhile, the US is witnessing a change of guards as incoming President Donald Trump is set to replace incumbent Joe Biden to become the President of the USA. Trump is likely to announce his pick for US Ambassador to India in days to come.
