  • What to Expect from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's U.S. Visit
    What to Expect from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s U.S. Visit By Caroline Wadhams and Aarthi Gunasekaran September 25, 2013 Despite ongoing turmoil in the Middle East, the Obama administration continues its steady pursuit of a foreign policy makeover, reorienting its attention and resources to the Asia-Pacific—specifically India. Following a number of high-level visits by American officials to India, including Vice President Joe Biden’s trip in July and Secretary of State John Kerry’s trip in June, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will meet with President Barack Obama tomorrow during his second official trip to Washington as prime minister.1 During the meeting, President Obama and Prime Minister Singh will likely focus on the following six issues in the U.S.-India relationship: • Trade and investment • Defense cooperation • The U.S.-India civil nuclear deal • Climate change and clean energy • Immigration reform • Security issues and the strategic partnership 1 Center for American Progress | What to Expect from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s U.S. Visit For the Obama administration, underlying these discussions will be the unmet expecta- tions of the U.S.-India relationship, a relationship envisioned as the cornerstone of the U.S. rebalance to the Asia-Pacific. While there were high hopes following the U.S.-India civil nuclear deal in 2008 and Prime Minister Singh’s 2009 visit to Washington, many U.S. policymakers have been disappointed by the Indian government’s failure to deepen the partnership by implementing the civil nuclear deal, making India more open to investment opportunities for U.S.

Highlights of the Year 2017 - 18 16 AMCHAM Chairman’s Message The world economy has been showing signs of growth notwithstanding the rising trade protectionism and financial market volatility. The Indian economy, on the other hand, continues to be one of the fastest growing. In the last 3 to 4 years, the Indian government has unveiled a string of reforms including two big bang reforms like the GST and demonetization which allowed the Indian economy to move into a cashless economy. Early this year, the Indian government raised FDI caps in several sectors and eased FDI rules for single brand retail (allowing 100% FDI in single brand under automatic route), non - banking financial companies and construction. These measures will enable India to increase its share in the global FDI inflow. Foreign investors have responded positively by bringing new investments or expanding their existing investments and remain optimistic of India’s growth story. Thus, 2018 will be a year of consolidation and it is predicted that the economy will grow by more than 7%. The U.S. - India strategic partnership continues to grow. This relationship has seen many pluses in the recent past. • Bilateral trade has more than doubled since 2006 and is estimated to reach $ 140 billion in 2017.
