Clinton holds talks with Indian PM
Former US president Bill Clinton has held talks In New Delhi with Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee.
Officials say the talks covered a range of bilateral issues and touched upon subjects discussed when Mr Clinton visited India as the US president in March last year.
Earlier, during a visit to Calcutta, Mr Clinton announced efforts by Washington to liberalise laws on child adoption in the United States.
The former president visited an orphanage run by Mother Teresa's Sisters of Charity and said Washington would work to help India's destitute children.
The former president is on a week-long visit to India, mainly to assess rehabilitation efforts in Gujarat, where an earthquake killed 20,000 people and left around one million others homeless.
