US President Barack Obama made a strong appeal for religious freedom at a town hall-style meeting in Delhi on Tuesday, weighing in on one of India's most controversial topics as he wound up a three-day visit.
US President Barack Obama's daughters, Malia and Sasha, will not be accompanying their father during his trip to India. They tend only to travel with their parents when they are on vacation from school, a US official has said.
From the moment Air Force One, US President Barack Obama's special aircraft, enters Indian airspace, a set of unprecedented security measures will be activated. He will land in Delhi on Sunday on a three-day visit during which he will be the chief guest at the Republic Day celebrations.
Where President Barack Obama goes, several White House chefs follow. But just in case, the top chefs at the five-star hotel booked for the US President's trip have been told to stay put - time off has been cancelled and they need to be on call, reports news agency IANS.
Describing the India visit of President Barack Obama as a "seminal moment" for bilateral ties, a senior White House official has said that America wanted to turn the "extraordinary" potential of their relationship into concrete benefits for the people of the two countries.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted this morning about a joint radio address with US president Barack Obama, who is arriving on Sunday morning for India's Republic Day celebrations.
Special cameras that can capture every tiny detail of the surroundings as well as the details of the human face have been installed in front of ITC Maurya hotel where US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle will be staying for three days beginning January 25.
