Rt Hon Theresa May, Prime Minister of UK, announced that Indian business visitors would now be eligible for the Registered Travelers Scheme of the UK which is aimed at a facilitative visa regime. She stressed that with Brexit, the UK would forge a new global outlook and her visit to India, her first bilateral visit outside Europe as Prime Minister and her first trade mission, is aimed at greater trade and investment and fewer trade barriers.

The UK Prime Minister outlined a three-point agenda for her visit. The first is to identify business opportunities, and a large trade delegation is accompanying her. The second is to look at each other’s priorities as ‘our own priorities’. With India undertaking large programs such as Make in India and Digital India, and the UK expanding its economic and social reforms, the two countries must support each other, she stated. She announced that the two countries are setting up an India-UK Urban Partnership. The third point is to break down barriers and make it easier to do business.Watch Rt Hon Theresa May's inaugural address at India-UK CII-DST TECH Summit With HD Quality.
