Joining the chorus of lawmakers with regard to economic reforms in India, a top American lawmaker cautioned that there is an increasing feeling in the Congress that the India-US relationship would hit a wall if New Delhi did not carry out the necessary reforms.

Noting that the India US bilateral relationship has "lost momentum" after the historic civic nuclear deal, Congressman Eliot Engel, Ranking Member to the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said on Monday.

"There is a growing view on Capitol Hill that our economic partnership with India will hit a wall if New Delhi does not make meaningful reforms on trade," he said.
