NEW DELHI: The United States sees India as a key partner in emerging technologies and expects bilateral ties to deepen as both countries work towards an interim trade agreement, US trade representative ambassador Jamieson Greer said amid ongoing negotiations between New Delhi and Washington.Speaking about his initial impressions of India, Greer said the country is building on its traditional strengths while expanding its focus on technology and artificial intelligence.”We know that India has a long history of agriculture and manufacturing, but they are moving forward in technology.They want to move forward in AI. They want to cooperate and coordinate with the United States on the technologies of the future, and trade in the future.Some of the exciting opportunities that we will have between the US and India is to capitalise on them.”Asked how the Trump administration envisions the future of the US-India trade relationship, Greer said President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi have laid the foundation for closer cooperation.”President Trump and Prime Minister Modi have an amazing relationship. They have nurtured it over many years. Just last week, they met at the G7 in France, and they agreed to take the relationship to the next level. The trade deal that we are working on included every aspect of the relationship. We expect the relationship to continue developing and only going to higher and higher levels with every passing week.”The remarks come as India and the United States are negotiating an interim trade agreement ahead of the July 24 deadline, when the temporary 10% US tariffs are due to expire. Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal and Greer recently concluded another round of ministerial-level discussions in New Delhi aimed at resolving the remaining differences.The proposed interim agreement is expected to serve as the first phase of a broader Comprehensive Bilateral Trade Agreement. Negotiators are working to bridge differences over market access, tariff reductions and non-tariff barriers.As part of the negotiations, India has proposed large-scale purchases of US products across sectors including energy, aircraft, technology goods and coking coal. The proposed purchases could be worth as much as 0 billion over the next five years and are aimed at strengthening long-term economic ties between the two countries.Get the latest India news and live updates.

MEA says passport not a travel document NEW DELHI: A clarification by the ministry of external affairs (MEA) that a passport is “primarily a travel document” and not proof of citizenship has renewed attention on a longstanding legal question – what documents establish Indian citizenship?Speaking at an event marking the 14th Passport Seva Divas, senior MEA official said a passport attests the nationality of Indians when they are abroad but should not be treated as a citizenship document. The remarks come amid wider debates around citizenship documentation and electoral roll verification.Last September, the Supreme Court declined requests from political parties seeking a direction to the Election Commission (EC) to treat Aadhaar as a standalone document for establishing citizenship during the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. The court observed that Aadhaar’s legal status could not be expanded beyond what is provided under existing law and refused to mandate its acceptance as sole proof of citizenship for voter enrolment.Some FAQs on citizenship:Q. How can Indian citizenship be acquired?According to a PIB Q&A on the National Register of Citizens (NRC), Indian citizenship can be acquired in five ways under the Citizenship Act, 1955:Citizenship by BirthCitizenship by DescentCitizenship by RegistrationCitizenship by NaturalisationCitizenship by Incorporation of TerritoryQ. Is there a single document that proves Indian citizenship?No. India does not issue a single, universally held document that serves as definitive proof of citizenship for all citizens. Citizenship is established based on how it was acquired and the supporting records available under the Citizenship Act.Q. What is direct proof of Indian citizenship?For people who became Indian citizens through registration or naturalisation, a citizenship certificate issued by the government serves as direct proof of citizenship.Q. Is a citizenship certificate issued to every Indian citizen?No. Citizenship certificates are generally issued to people who acquire Indian citizenship through registration or naturalisation. Most Indians who are citizens by birth or descent do not possess a citizenship certificate.Q. What about Indians who acquired citizenship by birth or descent?Most Indians acquire citizenship by birth or descent and may never possess a citizenship certificate. In such cases, citizenship is established through a combination of documents relating to date and place of birth, parentage and nationality.Q. Which documents can help establish citizenship?Depending on the case, these may include:Birth certificatesCitizenship certificates of parentsRecords showing a parent’s Indian citizenshipIndian passports of parentsOther records relating to birth, parentage and nationalityQ. Can an Indian passport be used in citizenship-related applications?Yes. The ministry of home affairs’ citizenship guidelines refer to Indian passports and citizenship certificates as proof of Indian citizenship in applications involving spouses, children or parents of Indian citizens.Q. Are Aadhaar, voter ID and driving licence proof of citizenship?No. Aadhaar cards, voter IDs and driving licences primarily establish identity, residence or electoral registration. They are not considered conclusive proof of citizenship on their own.Q. Why don’t identity documents automatically prove citizenship?Documents such as Aadhaar, voter ID and driving licence are issued for specific purposes such as identity verification, electoral registration or driving privileges. They are not designed to determine citizenship status and therefore are not treated as conclusive proof of citizenship on their own.Q. Why did the MEA say a passport is not proof of citizenship?The MEA clarified that a passport is primarily a travel document that attests the holder’s nationality abroad. Legally, citizenship is determined under the Citizenship Act, while a passport is issued under the Passports Act and does not by itself constitute definitive proof of citizenship in all circumstances.Get the latest India news and live updates.
