'A Majestic Tiger's Delight' And 'Crorepati Bonds'
Dateline America
by Hari Jaisingh

Unlike the dull and drab State banquets hosted at Rashtrapati Bhawan in New Delhi, the White House banquet was a glittering show with an American band playing some lively tunes.The venue of the first phase of the banquet reception was the White House itself. The whole place was overflowing with a large number of successful American Indians with theirs spouses, US entrepreneurs, policy-makers and officials. It was a colourful gathering with various shades of sleek Indian and western wear.
