India has invited Prime Minister Mark Carney to New Delhi early in the new year for talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This could pave the way for a new economic relationship and a free trade agreement between the two countries.

India's High Commissioner to Canada Dinesh Kumar Patnaik said that a sincere effort is being made by the two leaders to improve diplomatic relations and increase trade and investment opportunities amid the tariff war with the US.

Patnaik said that if the two countries negotiate a far-reaching agreement, annual trade between Canada and India could cross $50-billion. He said that we want Prime Minister Carney to visit India at the earliest. Carney has been invited to attend the Artificial Intelligence Action Summit to be held in New Delhi in February.

Patnaik said that PM Modi will take time to discuss other bilateral issues, including economic and free trade agreements, with Prime Minister Carney.
