India's US ambassador Taranjit Singh Sandhu recently met US secretary of commerce Gina Raimondo in Washington DC and discussed bilateral commercial ties, the US department of commerce said in a statement. Both “underscored the importance of this commercial relationship and their commitment to growing business ties in support of the broader strategic relationship,” it said.

They also discussed scheduling the US-India CEO Forum and US-India Commercial Dialogue and the rescheduling of the US-India High Technology Cooperation Group meeting, it said.

Sandhu and Raimondo also discussed US-India technology collaboration and improving digital economy policies to strengthen that collaboration, the statement added.
