US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is expected to return to India in October for another multi-day visit, signalling the growing importance Washington places on its partnership with New Delhi.

“The secretary will be coming here to India, but after India, we're actually going to continue, and he's going to travel to Australia, and that'll be another quad meeting,” Gor said.
