The top US Embassy official noted that the India-US relationship is getting deeper and wider from all aspects while addressing the 21st Indo-US Economic Summit organised by the Indo-American Chamber of Commerce (IACC). He also highlighted the need to curb climate change, saying that if not resolved, climate change would have a significant impact of the collective prosperity both the countries.
“The impact on our collective prosperity if we do not solve these climate change problems together is profound. Together, I think we are doing some amazing things both at the government level and in private sector to reduce emissions to help India find a path for growth and development that does not overly exacerbate global climatic challenges and also, these changes would create the well-paying green jobs that I know we would all like to see,” said Andrews. The statement comes close on the heels of the bilateral talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Joe Biden last week in the US on the sidelines of the QUAD Summit.
Awanish Kumar Awasthi, Advisor to the Chief Minister, Uttar Pradesh, noted that the state provides one of the best business environments in the country with a robust implementation of the rule of law. Inviting global investors to Uttar Pradesh, Awasthi said that it is one of the most investor-friendly states with a clear and attractive foreign direct investment (FDI) policy.
