My latest on @ofbjp_usa:
#Modi himself reportedly played a role in the #OFBJP’s development. Historians Walter Andersen and Shridhar Damle explain that he was “dispatched by the BJP to the US in 1998 to review the activities” of the group.

#TulsiGabbard was a featured speaker alongside Jolly at the August 2014 #OFBJP banquet where he spoke.... Gabbard posed for a photo with @VijayJollyBJP while wearing a #BJP scarf and holding a biography of #Modi.
The #OFBJP’s registration as a foreign agent means that, going forward, any such interactions with US elected officials must be reported to the US government.
The changed status of the #BJP’s overseas wing also puts a new spin on any future US-based receptions for Modi. Andersen and Damle report that the #OFBJP has been “working closely with the @hssusa to organise Modi’s rallies.”
Changes include circulating rumors that the DOJ is investigating the group. Responding to enquiry, DOJ spokesperson Marc Raimondi said, “We don’t confirm or deny the existence of criminal investigations.”
