The recently concluded inaugural United States-India Strategic Dialogue held in Washington from 1 to 4 June 2010 has been hailed by the United States (US) administration as a symbol of deepening ties between the two countries. However, there are several questions being raised in policy circles about the dearth of any concrete ‘deliverables’ from this much publicised event. Such voices have once again revived the debate about the Obama administration’s sincerity and ability to raise the US-India relationship to the heady heights forged during the previous Bush administration.
