US President Donald Trump's statement about USAID interference in India's election has drawn attention to Veena Reddy, former India director for the agency. USAID funding for Indian projects increased significantly during Reddy's tenure, reaching ₹1,982 crores in 2022. BJP leader Mahesh Jethmalani has called for an investigation into USAID funding and Reddy's role. Reddy oversaw projects in health, economic development, education, and governance during her time as Mission Director.
