'Greatly value' Indian investments, says US amid H1B visa row

India TV News  

In the context of current fears about possible tightening of the US visa regime, the American administration has said that it greatly values investments by Indian companies and wants strong Indo-US economic ties. "We want to see US-India business-to-business ties remain strong," US State Separtment acting spokesman Mark Toner told reporters here at his daily press briefing on Monday. "We greatly value Indian companies' continued investment in the US economy, which also, of course, supports thousands of US jobs," Toner said. "Finance Minister Arun Jaitley raised the issue of H-1B visas for skilled professionals from India and highlighted the contribution which Indian companies and professionals are making to US economy," an Indian Finance Ministry statement said.
