What Joe Biden’s withdrawal means for US presidential election & ties with India

New Delhi: US President Joe Biden’s announcement Sunday night makes him the first presidential candidate in American history to withdraw from the race on such short notice. Even President Lyndon B.

Jaishankar has repeatedly said that India’s partnership with the US will continue to grow irrespective of whether a Republican or a Democrat is elected to the White House. Though there is bipartisan support in the US for deepening ties with India against a rising China, ch...
