Washington, Ramadan 3, 1437, Jun 8, 2016, SPA -- The United States is an "indispensable partner" when it comes to India's rapid economic growth and efforts to relieve poverty, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday in an address to a joint session of the US Congress, dpa reported. The speech to members of both chambers caps his three-day visit in Washington. The world's two most populous democracies have warmed relations in recent years amid US President Barack Obama's policy of a US "pivot" to Asia. "Many of you also believe that a stronger and more prosperous India is in America's interest," Modi told legislators. "Let us work together to turn shared ideals into practical cooperation." Fast-growing India offers a valuable market for US companies, while US technology is helping India develop, he said. --ٍSPA 20:17 LOCAL TIME 17:17 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
