UK and India relationship 'beneficial for the world'
British Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon David Cameron MP wrote in Indian daily, “To show how serious I am, I have brought with me the biggest visiting delegation of any British Prime Minister in recent memory: members of my cabinet, industry leaders, top businessmen and women, figures from the arts, sports and local government. We’re all here to make the case that this deeper relationship will be beneficial not just for our own countries, but for the world.”
Mr Cameron is joined by UK government ministers: William Hague, Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs; George Osborne, Chancellor of the Exchequer; Vince Cable, Business Minister; Jeremy Hunt, Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport; Gregory Barker, Minister of State for Energy and Climate Change and David Willetts, Minister of State for Universities and Science.

In Delhi, the UK Prime Minister will have a Guard of Honour at the Rashtrapati Bhavan and then lay a wreath at the Raj Ghat. Mr Cameron will meet President Mrs Pratibha Patil; Vice President Mr Hamid Ansari; Mrs Sonia Gandhi, Chairman of the United Progressive Alliance and Mrs Sushma Swaraj, BJP, Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha.
An agreement signed today between BAE Systems, Rolls-Royce and India's leading aerospace company, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), to supply 57 Hawk trainer aircraft to India.The deal is worth around £700 million, of which over £500 million is for BAE Systems and up to £200 million for Rolls-Royce. This is the second tranche of the purchase by India since 2004 when it had finalized a deal to buy 66 HAWKs.
Hindustan Aeronautics Limited Chairman and Managing Director Ashok Nayak and Karnataka Minister for Home V S Acharya were also present at the HAL complex in Bangalore.along with British Prime Minister David Cameron said:"I am delighted to witness the agreement between HAL and BAE Systems and Rolls-Royce. This is an outstanding example of India-UK defence and industrial partnership, and this agreement will bring significant economic benefits to both our countries. It is evidence of our new, commercial foreign policy in action."
Cameron said that it is not right for Pakistan to have any relationship with groups that are promoting terror, in comments seen as endorsing India's stand.
"We cannot tolerate in any sense the idea that this country(Pakistan) is allowed to look both ways and is able, in any way, to promote the export of terror, whether to India or whether to Afghanistan or anywhere else in the world," he said.
UK, Minister of Universities and Science on Wednesday said "proper policing" was needed to crack down on "bogus colleges" and check inflow of migrants.
"We are committed to controlling the total number of migrants coming to Great Britain and the way we will be doing that is by cracking down on bogus colleges in Britain, which are encouraging people into the country who are not students," Minister for Universities and Science, David Willets said.
Willets, further added his country valued the links between Indian students, academicians and their British counterparts.Britain had in February this year announced new measures aimed at cutting the number of student visas issued abroad and prevent misuse of the immigration system.
Under the new measures, successful applicants from India and other countries outside the European Union will have to meet a higher bar on English language requirement.Students taking courses below degree level will be allowed to work for only 10 hours a week, instead of the previous 20. He also wished more British students come to India for studies.
