Indo-US relations: Hotline between PMO and White House to continue post January 20

The hotline established in 2015 between Barack Obama and Prime Minister Narendra Modi will continue to exist after the outgoing US President hands over the baton to his successor Donald Trump on January 20, a presidential aide has suggested. It is the only new hotline that was established during the eight years of Obama Administration, reflecting on deepening of India-US ties. "I’d be surprised if that was something that was dis," said White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest.
