India and we are getting closer, no matter what… MoreThere is no doubt that India and the US are getting closer, but there are still some differences that have proved difficult to resolve and have hindered engagement on the ground. These are the shortcomings that India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Joe Biden will try to bridge during their earlier state visit to the US.
