One of the biggest issues between India and the US is outsourcing. As India Inc waits for President Obama to touch the shores of India, it is expected to push the US President to make it easier for Indian companies to do business in his country.
The US would benefit from a stronger India to counter China's growing influence and assertion. Meanwhile, India will want to know how America can help it to fight terror originating in Pakistan.
The White House has clarified that Obama cannot visit the Golden Temple because of a packed schedule. But along with Michelle, he will stop at the 450-year-old Humayun's Tomb, a world heritage site.
