He was received by India’s Ambassador to the U.S., Vinay Mohan Kwatra, who said the visit is a step towards strong and expanding bilateral military ties between the two countries. In a post on X, Mr. Kwatra welcomed the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS) on his visit to grow ties between the two Air Forces.

The visit comes amid a series of high-level exchanges between India and the U.S., reflecting growing strategic convergence. Earlier in February, Samuel J. Paparo, Commander of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, had visited India to increase cooperation on shared security interests and strengthen military-to-military ties.

In another key engagement, Elbridge Colby, U.S. Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, visited India in March to advance the U.S.’s national defence strategy and deepen bilateral defence collaboration. During that visit, he co-chaired the U.S.-India Defence Policy Group meeting with India’s Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh.

The discussions built upon the framework for the U.S.-India Major Defence Partnership, signed in October 2025 by the U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and India’s Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.
