New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet President Barack Obama at the White House on September 29-30 during which the two leaders would discuss a wide range of issues of mutual interest to expand and deepen the US-India strategic partnership.
The fact that the meeting will be spread over two days reflects the importance the US attaches to bilateral ties, a top official said tolad a news agency in Washington. However, the format and details of the maiden Obama-Modi meeting have not been announced yet. “President Obama looks forward to welcoming Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India to the White House on September 29-30,” White House press secretary said. The meeting will mark Mr. Modi’s first visit to the US after coming to power. In 2005, the US had revoked Mr Modi’s Visa in the wake of the 2002 riots.
