European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen is in New Delhi for talks with prime minister Narendra Modi, as the EU looks to boost trade and defence ties with India.

This follows UK prime minister Boris Johnson's visit to India last week, as western allies are trying to encourage New Delhi to reduce its dependence on Russia for military equipment.
