NEW DELHI (Nov 7): British Prime Minister Theresa May offered India a possible improved visa deal on Monday, as the two countries kicked off talks on boosting trading links ahead of Britain's departure from the European Union. She attached a condition to a better deal, however: progress in sending home Indians who have outstayed their visas. POST-BREXIT BRITAINLooking ahead to a post-Brexit world, May said she wanted Britain to be a committed advocate of free trade. Britain will offer new services to improve business travel for Indian visitors, including faster clearance through UK border controls. "There is no such thing as selective free trade," Amitabh Kant, best known as the originator of the "Incredible India" tourism promotion, told the tech summit, when asked about May's emphasis on striking a free trade deal with India.
