Managed by State Dept & General Services Administration, it is more than a guest residence of American presidents

- JAYANTH JACOB @ New Delhi

PRIME Minister Narendra Modi is staying at the Blair House, the historic guest residence of US presidents, which has been a symbol of American hospitality for a long time, hosting dignitaries and heads of state worldwide.

Indian Prime Ministers, in particular, have a notable history with the iconic residence. Jawaharlal Nehru stayed at Blair House during his three visits to the US in 1949, 1956, and 1961. His daughter, Indira Gandhi, followed suit on her first two visits to the US in 1966 and 1971.
