Trump Defends US Decision To Cancel $21m Voter Turnout Fund For India Amid Growing Controversy

US President Donald Trump defended the US decision to cancel $21M voter turnout funding for India, citing India’s high taxation and strong economy.

The move, announced by Elon Musk-led DOGE, sparked backlash in India, with the ruling BJP criticizing Congress and linking the issue to foreign influence.

Congress demanded an investigation, asserting that foreign intervention in elections is unacceptable.

The controversy continues to escalate ahead of India’s upcoming elections.

Trump Gets 47% Approval Rating Within 3 Months; Massive Support For Trump’s Border, Trade Policies

Trump Hits 47% Approval in Three Months. Three months into his second term, former U.S. President Donald Trump has reached his highest approval rating at 47%, according to an NBC News poll. Despite ongoing criticism of his economic policies, Trump enjoys massive support for his border security measures (56%) and trade policies (41%). The poll also reveals that 44% of voters believe the country is on the right track—the highest since 2004. However, 54% disapprove of Trump’s economic handling, and his controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative remains divisive. With Democrats facing historically low favorability, Trump continues to dominate GOP support at 90%. #TrumpApproval #ApprovalRating #DonaldTrump #TrumpAdministration #TrumpApprovalRatings #PresidentTrump #TrumpEconomy #PresidentialApproval #TrumpJobApproval #TrumpDisapproval #TrumpPolls #TrumpSupport #TrumpPolicies #TrumpLeadership #TrumpRatings Also Read PM Modi Joins Trump's Truth Social, Highlights Strong Bond With US President: 'Thank You My Friend'' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pm-modi-joins-trumps-truth-social-highlights-strong-bond-with-us-president-looking-forward-to-4097295.html?ref=DMDesc An Uncertain Peace: How Trump And Putin Plan To End The Ukraine War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/an-uncertain-peace-how-trump-and-putin-plan-to-end-the-ukraine-war-4096855.html?ref=DMDesc Sunita Williams And Butch Wilmore Thanks Elon Musk And Donald Trump In A Heartfelt Video | Watch :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/sunita-williams-and-butch-wilmore-thanks-elon-musk-and-donald-trump-in-a-heartfelt-video-watch-4096831.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.336~GR.121~
