Asked

Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the UK's relationship with India.

Reply

First, let me express again how deeply shocked and saddened I was by the devastating plane crash in Ahmedabad. The Foreign Secretary visited India in his first month in office. Since then, we have agreed the groundbreaking Technology and Security Initiative, concluded negotiations on the Free Trade Agreement and made big strides towards agreeing a new Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. The Foreign Secretary also visited Delhi earlier this month to discuss our ambitions to further strengthen and deepen our relationship in trade, security, technology, climate and education.
