The Congress today expressed confidence that the Indo-US ties, which are on a "sure and even keel", are expected to grow under the leadership of Barack Obama, who was elected as the 44th President of the US today.

"Obama represents youthful energy, exuberant dynamism and a forward looking progressive mindset which is also the spirit animating India," Congress spokesman Abhishek Manu Singhvi told PTI.

He said the bedrock and foundation of Indo-US relations has been so strengthened by the UPA and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh that bilateral ties are on a sure and even keel.

"These relations are therefore not dependent on the personality or political affiliation of any US president," Singhvi said.
