Rahul Gandhi is visiting the US in the first week of June and will speak to NRIs in New York on 4 June, according to sources, as reported by a news agency.
The venue for his address to NRIs has not been chosen yet and will be confirmed later this week.
During his week-long stay, Gandhi might visit Washington, DC, and Los Angeles.
He may also interact with university students during his US visit.
The Congress leader's comments during his March visit to the UK, claiming that Indian democracy was being attacked and its institutions faced a full-scale assault, caused controversy upon his return to India.
After his remarks, the BJP back home accused Gandhi of slandering India on foreign soil and seeking foreign intervention, while the Congress brought up instances of PM Modi doing the same.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
