NEW DELHI: Tiffany Trump, the daughter of US President Donald Trump, visited the historic Sonar Fort in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer on Sunday evening, accompanied by her husband, Michael Boulos, officials confirmed. The couple arrived earlier in the day at Jaisalmer Civil Airport from Delhi aboard a special aircraft and were greeted with a traditional Rajasthani welcome.
Among those who received them were US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor, District Collector Anupama Jorwal, Superintendent of Police Abhishek Shivhare, and officials from the police, administration, and tourism departments. During the evening, the couple toured the Sonar Fort in a golf cart and explored the fort museum, where they were introduced to the region's rich art, culture, and history.
Local heritage expert Vijay Ballani briefed them on the historical significance, architecture, and cultural legacy of the fort, officials said. Special arrangements have been made for their stay at a luxury hotel on Sam Road, with multi-layered security deployed across the city. Personnel from local police, Indian security agencies, and the US Secret Service are part of the security detail.
The visit has kept the district administration and security agencies on high alert. Given Jaisalmer's proximity to the India-Pakistan border and the movement of a high-profile foreign guest, enhanced security measures have been implemented at major tourist attractions and other key locations across the city. Strict security arrangements were also maintained during the fort visit, while media access remained restricted inside the premises.
During their stay, the couple is expected to visit several of Jaisalmer's prominent tourist attractions, including Patwon Ki Haveli and Gadisar Lake. They are expected to return to Delhi on Monday, officials said.
