The Ambani, who reached US capitol Washington on January 18, were part of a select 100 who attended an intimate dinner with Trump last evening…

Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani and wife Nita met US President-elect Donald Trump a day before the second inauguration of the Republic leader.

The swearing-in ceremony for Trump’s return to office will be attended by some of the most influential billionaires and politicians on the planet along with foreign leaders and celebrities.

The couple will attend the January 20 inauguration as the personal invitee of the Trump family, they said.

An email sent to Reliance Industries Ltd, the company Mukesh Ambani heads as chairman and managing director, for comments remained unanswered.

Ambani share close ties with the Trump family .The richest Indian was present when Ivanka Trump, daughter of Donald Trump, visited Hyderabad for the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in 2017. She was an advisor to President Trump then.

The family, dressed in traditional Indian attires, even posted pictures of their time spent at the celebrations on Instagram. In her first post, Ivanka, dressed in gold and silver gown, called the first night of festivities as a “magical evening in Everland.” A follow-up post, that showed her wearing a two-piece white lace outfit, had the comment “The celebration of Anant and Radika love continues on our second night in India.” For the final night of the pre-wedding fun, she wore a white-and-gold dress with green and red accents, and captioned the pic, “Stepping out and headed to the Tusker Trails in Jamnagar.” Sources said the Ambani are reciprocating that visit with the attendance at the Trump inauguration.

While many wealthy donors have pledged maximum USD 1 million contributions to Trump’s inauguration committee to get access and VIP treatment at the inauguration, the Ambani have been extended a personal invite by the Trump family, they said.
