Andhra Village of Vadluru Eagerly Awaits Visit from US Vice President JD Vance and Wife Usha

As US Vice President JD Vance tours India with his wife Usha Vance and their children, excitement is building in Vadluru, a quiet village in Andhra Pradesh’s West Godavari district — the ancestral home of Usha Vance.

Locals are hopeful the Vance family will make a stop at the village during their India visit, calling it a proud moment for the community. Villagers recall the Chilukuri family’s historic contributions, including land donations that helped build the local Sai Baba temple and expand access to education decades ago.

Community leaders and residents have appealed to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu to facilitate the visit. “It would be a historic moment for us,” said one resident. “Usha’s success reminds us of our roots, and we want to share in her journey.”
