Manmohan Singh arrives in US; Indo-US relations poised to reach a new high

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh arrived in Washington to a red carpet welcome as the first state guest of President Barack Obama for a visit that is expected to take the Indo-US strategic relationship to the next level.

Dr. Singh, his wife Gursharan Kaur and the entourage, was welcomed by a group of children and the Indian-American community at the Andrews air force base in Maryland, before he drove to the Willard Intercontinental Hotel, three blocks away from the White House.
