NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Thousands of miles from Washington, where the funeral of Jimmy Carter is set for next week, an Indian village named after the former U.S. president fondly remembers his visit almost 50 years ago, paying tribute.
A one-term president from 1977, Carter, who died on Sunday aged 100, is to be given a state funeral at the Washington National Cathedral on Thursday.
