As Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit the US in his birthday month, this September, more than 24,000 Indian diaspora signed up to attend his event.

The Indo-American Community of USA (IACU) reportedly announced that the event registrations had oversold with over 24,000 people signing up for the gathering despite the event capacity of 15,000.

According to the IACU, 590 community organisations across the United States have registered for the event, all of which have signed up as “Welcome Partners”.

The attendees and participating organisations represent a diverse array of religious communities, including members of the Jewish, Zoroastrian, Jain, Christian, Sikh, Muslim, and Hindu faiths.

PM Modi is one of the speakers at the UN General Assembly (UNGA) scheduled on Sept 26.

This year, the high-level General Debate of the 79th session will take place between September 24 and 30.

Notably, in 2023 PM Modi skipped the UNGA meeting and S Jaishankar represented India.
