WASHINGTON: The H-1B visa issue that was looming on the India-US relationship in the run up to Prime Minister NarendraModi's maiden meeting with President Donald Trumpdid not figure in the talks between the two leaders.
With the Trump administration undertaking a review of the H-1B visa, the most sought-after by Indian IT professionals, the issue had taken centre stage ahead of Modi's US visit with the issue expected to figure prominently in bilateral discussion.
However, the H-1B issue specifically did not figure in the talks with foreign secretary S Jaishankar telling reporters that there was a lot of discussion with business leaders and the two leaders about the digital partnership when asked about whether H-1B visa issue figured in the talks. - TOI
