The US Department of Justice has, for the first time, made public a claim alleging that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi “danced to please” then US President Donald Trump during his official visit to Israel in 2017.

According to the disclosure, the alleged incident occurred during diplomatic engagements linked to Modi’s Israel tour, where Trump was also present. The unusual claim has drawn attention due to the involvement of senior political leaders.

India’s Ministry of External Affairs has firmly rejected the allegation, calling it misleading and denying that any such incident took place. The disclosure has since sparked debate, with analysts seeking clearer context from US authorities.
