Washington: The five-day visit of US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to India has resulted in significant expansion of relationship between the two nations, a senior US official said on Tuesday. "What you are seeing in the announcements that she (Clinton) and the External (Affairs) Minister (S M) Krishna announced tonight, you have an expanding and significant agenda," Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs Philip J Crowley told reporters at State Department briefing. He said, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has accepted the invitation of US President Barack Obama for a State visit in November. "What, you are seeing in terms of the agenda is a very significant expansion of the relationship and the issues that will be subject to our bilateral and multilateral relationships going forward," Crowley said. Responding to question that why on first two days of her trip to India, Clinton met with the people and businesses and not with the Government, he said that nothing should be read as it was normal. "I do not think there is a cookie cutter approach here. I can recall 10 years ago going to China with the US President and he didn't go to Beijing on day one. It might well be the availability of senior officials within the Indian Government.
