A Congressional Briefing on US Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Exports to India
Recently, USINPAC organized a Congressional Briefing on US Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) exports to India on the Capitol Hill. USINPAC’s LNG initiative was launched in 2013. The LNG Initiative is USINPAC’s project to decisively influence US policy on expediting LNG exports to India and thus help foster a long-term collaboration in LNG trade between the two countries.
Call for Action
Anti-Modi Petition needs to be removed…Quickly!
As India’s new Prime Minister Mr. Modi prepares for his first US trip, an anti- Modi petition replete with no facts and full with false accusations has been filed on the official website of President of the United States. The idea of this anti-India petition is to slander India as a ‘fascist state’ by making false allegations of human rights violations
