US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti said India is in the “driving seat” of the Quad, while America is in the seat next to it with the “corrective steering wheel”, and added that it is up to India to “forcefully define” the nature of the diplomatic partnership.

Garcetti, speaking at the 17th edition of Jaipur Literature Festival (JLF), used a unique analogy of ‘eating, drinking and sharing a ride together’ to explain the different roles of member countries.
