From KCRW in Santa Monica and PRI, Public Radio International, this is To the Point.

The U.S. and India, a complex partnership.

Hello again. I'm Armin Alney, and this is To the Point from Public Radio International.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi was at the White House today. He'll address Congress tomorrow

as relations between the U.S. and India continue to warm up.

But senators of both parties have criticized India's human rights record, and Modi himself once was denied a U.S. visa for tolerating religious violence.

He now governs a nation that needs new jobs for a million people who turn 18 every month,

while economic growth increases the dangers of climate change.

We'll hear about India's role in America's pivot to Asia and the challenge of China's assertiveness.

Today's talking point are the political news media reporting more than they actually know.

First, here's the news.
