Free trade talks between the UK and India will be relaunched as the Business Secretary visits New Delhi on Monday after negotiations stalled last year.
Mr Reynolds will also visit Delhi’s National Crafts Museum and BT India’s office in Gurugram – one of the largest UK employers in India.
Jonathan Reynolds will meet commerce minister Piyush Goyal for two days of negotiations aimed at clinching a long-sought deal which the Government hopes could unlock valuable markets for British business.
Announcing Monday’s talks, Mr Reynolds said securing a deal with India was a “no-brainer” and a “top priority” for the Labour Government.
“That is why I’m flying to New Delhi with our top negotiating team to show our commitment to getting these talks back on track,” the Business Secretary said.
