Recognize the Unique and Historic Significance of the Visit of India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi

Created by S.C. on August 13, 2014

We the undersigned, believe that Mr. Modi's overwhelming Indian electoral victory, and unprecedented support in the Indian diaspora presents a unique opportunity for the White House to:
i. Embark upon a special relationship predicated on shared Indian and American values of democracy, human rights, and religious pluralism;
ii. Take mutual steps to increase trade, improve infrastructure and encourage environmental stewardship in both nations;
iii. Further strategic dialogue to identify and eliminate shared threats of global terror networks;
iv. Explain the arbitrary invocation of Section 212 (a)(2)(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act that prevented Mr. Modi from several engagements with American supporters;
v.Encourage national events celebrating U.S. India friendship.
