New Delhi: United States president Barack Obama will address a joint session of the Indian Parliament during his visit to the country later this year.
Obama will address a sitting of both Upper and Lower Houses of the Parliament on November nine, during the US President first visit to the country since assuming office, reports said on Saturday.
The Winter Session of the Parliament, which generally starts from the second week of November, will be brought forward to accommodate Obama.
The last US president to address a joint session of the Parliament was Bill Clinton in 2000.
Among other dignitaries to have addressed the Indian Parliament are former Russian president Vladimir Putin and former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe.
British prime minister David Cameron, who concluded his two-day visit to India earlier this week, had expressed desire to address the Parliament, but his request could not be kept due to scheduling problems.
