India inviting US President Donald Trump to be the chief guest at the Republic Day celebrations next year, is a noble gesture . Trump accepts it or not, the invitation would give a major boost to ties between the two countries in areas of defence, security and trade.
It is better for our country to have association with US as a good number of Indians are working there. No other world country accommodates so much Indians as US does. And our politicians including those from Left politics prefer US for medical treatment to Russia or China.
Also, for India to seek waiver from US sanctions on import of oil from Iran, a bond is needed with US. Any border rift with Pakistan or China could be easily resolved with a stronger friendship between India and US.
