US President Donald Trump has expressed deep gratitude for the naming of a road after him in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad. At the same time, he claimed that he is the first US President to receive such an honour.

Trump made this comment in a post on his social media platform ‘Truth Social’ on Friday (June 26).

His reaction came after the Telangana government recently renamed a road adjacent to the newly built US consulate in Hyderabad as ‘Donald Trump Avenue’.

Trump wrote in his post, ‘New Donald Trump Avenue in Hyderabad, India – this is the first time in history that a US President has been honoured like this. Thank you.’ He also shared a picture of the official unveiling of the plaque by Telangana Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Wickramakra and US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor earlier this week.

It is worth noting that the newly renamed 'Donald Trump Avenue' area is very important. It is located very close to the offices of leading US technology companies like Microsoft, Google and Amazon.

The Telangana government has said that this naming is essentially a special tribute to the United States. At the same time, it is a formal recognition of Hyderabad's growing importance in the bilateral relations between the United States and India.
