British PM Starmer's India visit to focus on trade, investment, tech ties

The two-day visit, at the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, will see both leaders take stock of the progress made across all aspects of the India-UK Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in line with “Vision 2035”—a 10-year roadmap agreed alongside the India-UK free trade agreement (FTA) in July to build on the key pillars of the partnership.

The focus of the Modi-Starmer bilateral talks will be on the opportunities presented by the India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), as the FTA is known, which is set to remove tariffs on over 90% of goods once it is ratified by the UK Parliament.
