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.
Pak PM Yousuf Raza Gilani assured the world community on Sunday that Pakistan's nuclear arsenal is in "safe hands" as he embarked on a visit to the US to attend the Nuclear Security Summit hosted by President Barack Obama.
Looking forward to meeting Prime Minister Manmohan Singh here on Sunday, US President Barack Obama would be discussing with the visiting Indian leader, among other issues, the upcoming Strategic Dialogue between the two countries.
The last time Prime Minister Manmohan Singh arrived here in Washington for a state visit he was given the red carpet treatment by the Obama administration.
Talking tough, US President Barack Obama has vowed to deny a safe haven to Al-Qaida and reverse "Taliban's momentum" in Afghanistan, as he asked his counterpart Hamid Karzai to act decisively against corruption on his first visit to the country.
The United States is keenly watching the run up to the India-Pakistan talks. President Obama's top negotiators have been visiting New Delhi and Islamabad virtually every other day.
By Bihar standards, it's an unusual sight. The US Ambassador to India, riding a cycle rickshaw, through the streets of Patna.
