What Obama's Win Means To India?

He said "I have no doubt that there is much more we can do together to further strengthen the India-U.S. partnership and thereby advance peace and stability, expand mutual economic opportunities, harness the potential of science and technology, innovation and higher education, and empower our people to address global challenges," reported newstrackindia.com.

So what does Obama’s win mean for Indo-U.S. relations? The Indo-U.S. nuclear deal will also now move ahead and trade will be the large focus.

Further, Godrej Group chairman Adi Godrej was quoted as saying “This is a good development for India. Between two large economies there will be issues and concerns. Outsourcing is also a concern and I hope it will be addressed soon,” as reported by PTI.

Bharti Group chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal said “It is on expected lines but there was some heat reported in the last few days. I think it will be good for India. There will be continuity,” as reported by ibtimes.com.

While, there is great cheer from Indians on Obama’s victory, there is hope that India and the U.S. will strengthen ties and further improve relations.
