Last Updated 03 May 2018, 05:45 IST

This was stated by none other than President Barack Obama himself when he dropped in at a White House meeting between National Security Advisor ShivShankar Menon and his American  counterpart Tom Donilon, informed sources said.

It is understood that Obama told Menon that Michelle loved her stay in India and she would like to travel to India once again with her two daughters. In fact, Sasha and Malia were originally scheduled to travel with the Obamas to India but they could not because it clashed with their school schedule.

"She is a determined lady" said an Indian diplomat familiar with the conversation, adding that the First Lady would be able to visit Indian soon. However, there is no official preparation at this point of time, official said.

During the meeting with Menon, Obama asked him to convey to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh how much he and Michelle enjoyed trip to India last November. Obama conveyed his own commitment to strategic partnership between India and the United States.
