US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor stated that India and the US are expanding cooperation across sectors including defence, information technology, and healthcare. Gor made these remarks on Monday, October 12, at an event in Kolkata commemorating 250 years of America's Independence. He highlighted recent military exercises, defence cooperation, and investments by companies from both nations as indicators of a growing partnership.

Gor also noted the significant role India plays in the healthcare sector, stating that the US imports a substantial quantity of its generic pharmaceuticals from India due to trust. He mentioned that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump had spoken the previous week. US Consul General in Kolkata, Kathy Giles-Diaz, also addressed the event.

## Coverage comparison

## What the coverage left out

None of the right-rated digests mention the specific date of the event in Kolkata, October 12, or the fact that it was held to mark 250 years of America's Independence. The Siasat Daily, which provided a full report, included these details.

## How the sides framed it

### Left

- The Siasat Daily, the sole left-rated report, led with Ambassador Gor's statement that India and America are expanding cooperation across sectors including defence, IT, and healthcare. The report detailed Gor's remarks on military exercises, defence cooperation, company investments, and India's role in supplying generic pharmaceuticals to the US. It also included Gor's mention of a recent conversation between Prime Minister Modi and President Trump, and remarks from US Consul General Kathy Giles-Diaz.

### Centre

- The Economic Times, the centre-rated report, focused its headline on Ambassador Gor's comment, "Stay tuned for what comes next," in relation to India-US ties following talks between Prime Minister Modi and US President Trump. The digest indicated the report covered Gor's highlighting of growing partnership and the mention of the leaders' conversation.

### Right

- Seven right-rated reports from CNBC-TV18, The Hindu Business Line, ABP News, Times of India, The Print, Tribune India, and aninews.in, along with the unrated reports from connectedtoindia.com, The CSR Journal, Amar Ujala, and the left-rated Siasat Daily, all highlighted Ambassador Gor's statement that India and the US are expanding cooperation across sectors like defence, IT, and healthcare. Several of these reports, including Times of India, Tribune India, and aninews.in, also featured Gor's quote, "Stay tuned for what comes next," in their headlines, linking it to the conversation between Prime Minister Modi and President Trump. The digests from this group frequently mentioned military exercises, investments, and India's role in supplying generic medicines as key aspects of the expanding partnership.

**Provisional coverage gap:** left. The watch is not closed, so this is not yet a settled blindspot finding.
