WTO Director General Pascal Lamy will meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in New Delhi on Tuesday and is likely to seek India's views on the options before the multilateral trade body to bring the beleaguered Doha Round of trade talks back on rail.

Lamy's two-day visit to India beginning Tuesday will also see him holding discussions with Commerce and Industry Minister Kamal Nath, as well as representatives of the industry, sources said.

The WTO chief's visit is likely to be followed by one to the US where he would meet trade officials and try to bring them on board for maintaining the momentum to conclude the Doha trade talks that was launched in 2001.

His visit comes days after the WTO mini-ministerial meeting in Geneva collapsed on the issue of safeguard for farmers from the developing countries against import surges.

The stand-off in the Geneva meeting was mainly between the US on the one side and India and China on the other. India had later said, besides China, over 100 developing and least developed countries were backing the cause of poor farmers.

When in India, Lamy would be participating in a two-day international conference on 'Global Partnership for Development' being jointly organised in New Delhi by think-tank CUTS International and industry body Ficci.
