New Delhi, Feb 6 (PTI) The US is expected to renew its demand for further opening up of the Indian economy in sectors like multi-brand retail and easing of trade restrictions on several areas, including farm products.
These issues are likely to be taken up by US Commerce Secretary Gary Locke when he meets Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma here tomorrow.
Locke, who would visit India between February 6 to 11, would be leading a trade mission comprising 24 US companies from the fields of civil nuclear, hi-tech, security, civil aviation, communication and technology.
India on its part is most likely to discuss the issue of hike in visa fee by the US which has hit India's services sector, particularly the information technology.
