Who is Pramila Jayapal, attended State Dinner for PM Modi in White House?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended the state dinner hosted by President Biden and First Lady Biden at the White House. PM Modi also delivered a historic speech at the U.S. Congress. His speech got 79 rounds of applause and 15 standing ovations. Among those clapping for PM Modi was one of his staunchest critics Democrat Pramila Jayakar.

Earlier though, Pramila Jayapal along with US Senator Chris Van Hollen had led a bicameral letter urging President Joe Biden to “discuss the need to protect human rights and democratic values in India during his meeting with PM Modi.”

The letter was written on June 20 and it was signed by 75 members of the US Congress. But it was supported more by the entire Indian National Congress.
