Explain to our viewers why this jet engine deal which is likely to be announced now is such a big deal why is it so important because it’s also about technology sharing it is also about capability of our own defense manufacturing Hindustan aircraft limited for instance has been manufacturing and
Associated with all kinds of aircraft but this jet engine deal could actually be in real concrete terms a technology transfer that could change the game that’s what many are saying well certainly technology to technology transfer is something that will be emphasized because 80 of the production
Of uh the uh the jet engines will be in India remember prime minister in Modi had been very vocal about making India programs and the defense equipments and the Jet aircrafts in India certainly MK4 is something on the deal because after technical technology transfer there would be more production
Of jet engines in the country uh ge will be having a deal with the Hal certainly this will be a very important issue as far as the bilateral is concerned between Joe Biden and uh prime minister and Modi all right let’s take this across to Our Guest now joining us with

First the Civil nuclear deal remember we signed civil nuclear deal back in 2008 and since then there hasn’t been much of progress and as the politics was around it at what will India gain from it it started looking true that what is India gaining from the Civil nuclear deal but
Now uh in 2023 what we know that there will be six nuclear reactors that will be set up in kodowa in Andhra Pradesh and you know the all six of them would be eleven Thousand Eleven Hundred megawatts apart from that jet engine deal is something that is very very
Important remember back in June when prime minister was in uh well there you have a hold on uh hold on we have uh you know the president of the United States making his way out as he waves to other people who are there to welcome him uh
VK Singh of course at the airport he will be one of the dignitaries who will be welcoming uh the U.S president as he steps down from the Air Force One will be headed towards the hotel as we speak of course you can see there now we should note here Joe Biden of
Course ahead of him Landing in India has had tweeted as well that he’s headed to the gt20 he had spoken about how it’s the premier a forum for international economic operation he even said it’s focused on making progress on Americans priorities delivering for developing nations and showing our commitment to
The G20 as a forum that can deliver every time we engage we get better he had said in a tweet as now there he has a few words with the people who who’ve been there waiting for him patiently for him to arrive he will head of course right now
To the hotel later like my colleagues were pointing out the bilateral meeting with the Prime Minister scheduled multiple meetings with the G20 as well lined up now before the summit of course Mr Biden will be holding bilateral talks with the Prime Minister uh today that’s scheduled in a short while from now
As of now the plan that we’ve been told he’s going to go with is first go to the hotel and then of course wear the bilateral meeting will take place now while of course he’s going to make this transition from the airport towards the meat and the hotel itself for
There’s going to be elaborate security Arrangements that will be put in place it’s the Secret Service which has made all Arrangements have been moving around in the national capital for several days ahead of the president’s visit to ensure that the security overall uh is tight now he’s waving to some of the media
Persons who’ve been waiting of course looks quite happy that after the long journey to the column Airport now we’ve just got an update that the US president of course will be proceeding directly uh to the bilateral meet with prime minister Narendra Modi so at this point in time that’s the latest as far
As the U.S president’s plan is concerned yeah in this particular bilateral meet multiple issues are going to be discussed my colleagues of course we’re pointing out a few of them a deal for fighter jet engines is something that could be on the cards we’ve seen the talks on predator drones of course last
Time around that uh was something that came up for discussion now there’s also going to be issues like uh 5G and 16 networks where U.S could collaborate with India and there you have the beast that’s the official vehicle that the U.S president uses to commute
And uh as he gets seated now of course he will be headed towards that bilateral meet us for the latest plan that’s coming to the four we just saw Joe Biden there being greeted by Mr VK Singh and now seated inside the Beast as it’s called the official vehicle that the U.S president
Uses so tell us more about this particular meat that he’s headed to what can we expect there well certainly rousing welcome for U.S president uh Joe Biden at the Palam technical airport different colors and cultures that has been showcased at the airport as well he’ll be directly
Heading to seven local Landmark for the bilateral meeting instead of going to the hotel that’s what the information also pouring in but certainly very very important uh deals to be finalized agendas in line as far as bilateral meetings are concerned of course we spoke about the jet engine deal with
Russia we spoke about uh the uh nuclear deal as uh will come up also there are many other uh things as far as Mobility is concerned Visa uh and consulate access is concerned for the Indians living in U.S as well uh what else apart from jet engine uh deal and nuclear deal
As we are talking rishabh because now uh President Joe Biden has directly headed to seven local Landmark for the bilateral meeting that is line up well People to People contact is something that is very very important for both U.S and India India has a 3 million strong popular deletion in a diaspora
Population in U.S and that makes India U.S diplomacy very very strong the mobility the H1B Visa Visa is something that has been Talk of the Town and there is a long delay in that Mobility is something that India and us have been discussing we have heard from multiple
Channels that how U.S is trying to streamline that Visa process and get the waiting time less apart from that the tourism between India and us is something that both the countries want to further and then the most important the defense deals that India and us is
Doing we have spoken about jet but they have predator drones as well that India is talking about MQ-9 drones that we are talking about so these things are things that will definitely be very very important high on agenda but jet engines and civil nuclear deal are the two
Things that will be cherry on the case all right so defense deal uh uh as far as jet engine deal and the nuclear deal is very very important and top on the agenda as far as uh bison and modi’s bilateral meeting is concerned but uh as
Joe Biden has sat in his Beast car that has been an official car of the president and headed towards prime minister Narayan modi’s residence where the bilateral meeting will take place we also have to uh certainly uh you know link this with the relations of India
And U.S the uh bonomy that we have seen so far uh prime minister last time visited in uh June at the U.S and uh there he greeted uh many uh you know important personalities different industry members came in uh together with uh you know Biden from both the U.S

Obama or now Joe Biden that makes it the diplomacy easy and that is what India is diplomacy uh makes easy between uh the India and us as rishab was mentioning because of the friendship that India and U.S have and whenever prime minister has visited Byron back to you
