Analysts feel that a Romney presidency would be good for India. Daniel Twining of the German Marshall Fund, a nonpartisan US think tank, said: “Romney would restore US leadership on free trade to deepen economic ties between the US and India. He would pursue an allies-first foreign policy that accords pride of place to core US partners.”
Sadanand Dhume of the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative US think tank, said: “Conservatives (Republicans) pay more attention to India than liberals (Democrats).”
