American lawmakers want Narendra Modi to address US Congress

WASHINGTON: Two American lawmakers have written to US House Speaker John Boehner requesting that Prime Minister Narendra Modi be invited to address a joint meeting of Congress in September when he travels to Washington at President Barack Obama's invitation.

"India is a critical partner of the United States. In every aspect, whether it be in political, economic, or security relationship, the United States has no more important partner in South Asia," Congressmen Ed Royce and George Holding wrote in their June 20 letter to the House Speaker, echoing Obama's oft-cited statement that US-India relationship will be one of the defining partnerships of the 21st century.

Royce and Holding said the US must now work closely with Modi to strengthen the relationship given that he has promised to focus on private enterprise, reduce bureaucracy, and strengthen trade ties with major partners. Since 2001, US-India trade has experienced impressive growth, but our commercial relationship remains far below the scale of our markets, they said.

Royce, a California Republican who is chairman of the House Foreign Relations Committee and former co-chair of the India Caucus, has been a ardent votary of a Washington outreach to Modi even as some of his colleagues worked to keep the former Gujarat chief minister out of the US in view of his alleged inaction during the 2002 Gujarat riots. The State Department complied with the pressure from a few lawmakers and their human rights constituents.

All that is now in the past after the White House, pilloried for allowing the India relationship to drift, initiated a policy turnabout, ostensibly impressed by the mandate the Indian electorate gave the Modi-led BJP. Efforts are now on to reset the relationship amid the discovery in Washington of Modi's many perceived strengths and virtues.

WTF is this Modi???
Rajyog ki hadd hoti hai bhai
Entered Gujarat politics as CM

He got big chunk of votes for being a Pro Telangana party .People voted for them on that basis, now that Telangana is done thing, they will look forward to all his promises made before elections,if he tries to mould his party on Gandhi family and Congress model people will quickly reject him.
He is still scared that they might not win next time so he is trying to consolidate his vote bank.As he cannot use the We(Telangana people) vs Them(Seemandhra people) issue anymore.He is trying to woo the minority vote bank, just like congress did, it will only work in favor of Bjp in coming years.Nobody should be given 12% reservation based on religion.A section of society can be backward, but how can a religion be backwards when they claim to be one of the biggest in the world?Earlier the High Court of AP stopped passing of such a bill by YSR when he was alive,back then it was 4% and how the hell does KCR think he can pass 12% now?

well, I do hope that KC Rao isn't a colossal F up.

Despite the Bifurcation, I do hope the Telangana state grows.

It is good for everyone.

He is turning out to be a big Arse day by day.TRS looks like Gandhi family 2.0 almost whole of his cabinet is in his home.
KCR-Chief Minister, SC/ST/OBC minorities welfare, municipal administration and urban development, energy, coal, GAD and all other portfolios not alloted.
K.T.Rama Rao: Minister of Panchayati Raj and IT (his Son)
T. Harish Rao: minister for Water works, Assembly Matters and Marketing(his Nephew)
K.Kavitha is M.P. from Nizamabad (his daughter)
His Son-in-Law is in politics.

Now tell me isn't this Congress Dynasty 2.0 or not?

To please Owaisi/MIM he is maintaining distance from Modi and bjp, which is proving detrimental to Telangana at the same time,Chandra Babu Naidu is getting huge packages and attracting all kinds of investors to Seemandhra and our CM sits doing nothing for attracting investments or any packages from center, instead he is trying socialist schemes based on congress model wants to give 13% reservation to minority based on Religion and wants to increase Reservation in Normal category over 50%.:hitwall::hitwall:

Looking at how things are going i think we are going to fall behind in development,investment and growth in next 5 years when compared to CBN ruling Seemandhra.

Telangana is all about how Hyderabad will attract new Industries in next few years. Being CBN as CM of Andhrapradesh and special status will be given next 10 yrs, it is highly difficult for Hyd to grow further in next decade at-least. 90% of existing Industries in Hyd are owned by AP(Seemandhra) people and most of them are politicians, some of those industries in outskirts of Hyd will move to Andhra sooner or later as their political future is associated with Seemandhra.

BTW, KCR is another Lalu prasad in making.

Yeah, he seems unhinged.

Let us hope at least he is serious about irrigation plans. Oh wait, I know ho this ends.

LoL can't i was born here, hopefully better sense prevails over KCR and he stops this freebies and reservation nonsense. He should approach Center for funds and investments,just to please MIM he should not put a whole state on backfoot.

I don't think Chandra Babu is a saint either.

Isn't his nick name the Real Estate chief minister?

Naidu needs to also concentrate on improving Agriculture, Manufacturing and IT simultaneously.

IT whilst being the trademark of his rule does not have the same multiplier effect.

But then again, I shouldn't complain about Corruption in Andhra.

I am from Kerala after all. No state can match up to the lack of vision there.
