India-U.S. Summit To Discuss Terror Attack, Trade and Development

In the context of the latest terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir, Rao said India had obviously not let the issue of cross-border terrorism off the radar.
On reports that the US National Security Agency had spied on the Indian embassy in Washington and the Indian UN office in New York, the ambassador "couldn't say specifically" whether it would be taken up at the Friday summit.
But "we have raised this issue with the American side and they are aware of our concerns," Rao said and given the level of understanding between the two governments, they were discussing it in a "dispassionate and objective" manner.
As Manmohan Singh meets Obama at his Oval Office at the White House, First lady Michelle Obama will host a separate tea for the Prime Minister's wife Gursharan Kaur in the residential wing.
After the summit and a brief media appearance for statements by both leaders, Singh and Obama will sit down for a working lunch along with their respective delegations.
Immediately after the summit, Manmohan Singh leaves for New York, where he will address the UN general assembly Saturday and meet the Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif Sunday.
