India and Canada are aiming to conclude negotiations for a comprehensive economic partnership agreement (CEPA) during Prime Minister Narendra Modi‘s proposed visit to Canada next month, Canadian International Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu said on Thursday, pitching his country as a long-term supplier of liquefied natural gas (LNG), uranium and critical minerals to meet India’s growing energy and manufacturing requirements. Speaking at the CII Partnership Summit in Visakhapatnam, Sidhu said the sixth round of negotiations between the chief negotiators of the two countries was underway and expressed hope that the agreement would be finalised before Modi’s visit.
