As planned, US President Barack Obama will visit New Delhi to attend India's Republic Day celebration on January 26.

President Obama's visit to India and Secretary of State John Kerry's visit are both aimed at lobbying India to become a strategic partner and helping American companies gain greater access to India's giant market of 1.2 billion people.

US officials have long argued that India needs to open its market further because some Indian policies remain barriers for US companies to invest and do business in this large market./.
