United States President Barack Obama's maiden visit to India is so far devoid of any big announcements and will, instead, concentrate on taking the six-year-old dialogue between the two sides beginning with the Next Steps in Strategic Partnership (NSSP) forward on a large number of issues.
A summit level meeting between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Mr. Obama on Monday will see both leaders carrying forward their earlier discussions on issues that include the stalled entry of U.S. nuclear companies, elimination of American curbs on export of hi-tech and dual use items to India, formulation of an action plan on cooperation in counter-terrorism, the setting up of a centre on pandemics, extension of cooperation in agriculture to specifics and tie-ups in the space sector.
Economic and trade and military and security cooperation will be the other two major components of Mr. Obama's visit.HERE
