A poster with the image of US President Donald Trump is set up at Marora village, which has been unofficially renamed 'Trump Village," about 100km from New Delhi, on June 23, 2017.
A rural Indian settlement with little electricity or running water renamed itself "Trump Village" on June 23 in an unusual gesture to the American president ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's trip to Washington. A huge billboard declaring "Welcome to Trump Village" in Hindi and English, accompanied with a beaming portrait of the US president, was unveiled in Haryana state's Marora, as the village is officially known. The water and sanitation group Sulabh, which has been installing toilets in the impoverished settlement, suggested the name change to the local council. / AFP PHOTO / MONEY SHARMA (Photo credit should read MONEY SHARMA/AFP/Getty Images)
