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.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi left for Mexico today after wrapping up his three-day US visit during which he held talks with President Barack Obama and addressed a joint session of the US Congress.
The Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi and the President of the United States of America Barack Obama met today in the White House during an official working visit of Prime Minister Modi to the United States.
The historic accord on climate change signed in Paris last year would not have been possible if it was not for India's leadership on "substantial commitments", the White House said in a statement on Tuesday, shortly after Prime Minister Narendra Modi met US President Barack Obama in Washington.
As Prime Minister Narendra Modi landed in Washington for a two-day visit, India's lobbying for the US to push with China for its inclusion in the Nuclear Suppliers Group or NSG has received a setback.
The US is "committed" to help India build its defence capabilities till it becomes the "net provider of security" in the Asia-Pacific region, a senior Obama administration official has said.
Combating climate change is central to Obama and Modi's legacies, and to their personal bond.
