Washington: The US has a very important relationship with India, the White House said today.
"We have a very important relationship with India," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters at his daily news conference responding to questions on recent cover story by the Time magazine in which Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was described as an "underachiever".
"What President (Barack Obama) thinks of India's Prime Minister Manmohan or his relationship with him?" Carney was asked.
"I haven't had that conversation with him. I mean, we have a very important relationship with India, as you know, but I haven't had that conversation with him lately," Carney responded.
