 January 25, 2015 07:59 IST

 New Delhi:  US President Barack Obama, accompanied by wife Michelle, is on his way to India and is scheduled to land at 10 am today at the Air Force station, Palam.

The US President is coming to India on a three-day visit on the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi; he will be the first US President to be the chief guest at the Republic Day celebrations on January 26.

In a message to President Pranab Mukherjee on the occasion of Republic Day, President Obama said he and his wife Michelle were looking forward to the India visit and enjoying the "generosity, hospitality, and beauty that marked our last visit" in 2010.

"As we work to deepen the ties between our great democracies and advance our partnership for the 21st century, we will continue to do so on the basis of the democratic ideals contained in our constitutions," he said.

On his arrival, President Obama will be accorded a ceremonial welcome at about 12 noon at the Rashtrapati Bhawan by the President and Prime Minister Narendra Modi; he will then pay homage to Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat.

President Obama will then join PM Modi for a working lunch at the Hyderabad House and participate in a "walk and talk" there, the White House said.

The two leaders will then have an expanded delegation level meeting, which is expected to last for about an hour. Later in the evening, President Obama is scheduled to meet US embassy personnel and their families. He will then attend the state banquet hosted by President Mukherjee at the Rashtrapati Bhawan.

On January 26, President Obama will be the chief guest at the Republic Day celebrations, held at Delhi's Rajpath. Later, the Obamas will attend an 'at home' reception hosted by President Mukherjee at Rashtrapati Bhawan.

In the afternoon, President Obama and PM Modi will participate in a CEO forum roundtable and address the US-India Business Summit.

On January 27, the US President will give an address at the Siri Fort Auditorium.

President Obama has cancelled his plans to visit the Taj Mahal; he is cutting short his visit to fly to Saudi Arabia following the death of King Abdullah. Saudi Arabia is a longstanding US ally and the world's leading oil exporter.

Mid-Term Elections and the Blue Dog Democrats

Of the 34 Democratic incumbents who voted no to health care reform, sixteen are projected to have lost their seats Tuesday while three are locked in races that are too close to call. Eleven Democratic congressman that voted against party lines when health care reform returned to the House floor on March 21, 2010 have retained their seats.

Of the remaining four, Artur Davis (AL-7) unsuccessfully ran for governor and Charlie Melancon (LA-3) lost his bid for U.S. Senate. But Marion Berry (AR-1), and John Tanner (TN-8) escaped election scrutiny and retired.

Those who lost Tuesday and voted against health care reform include: Congressmen John Adler (NJ-3), Michael Arcuri (NY-24), Rick Boucher (VA-9), Bobby Bright (AL-2), Travis Childers (MS-1), Lincoln Davis (TN-4), Chet Edwards (TX-17), Stephanie Herseth-Sandlin (SD-at-large), Frank Kratovil (MD-1), Jim Marshall (GA-8), Michael McMahon (NY-13), Glenn Nye (VA-2), Ike Skelton (MO-4), Zachary Space (OH-18), Gene Taylor (MS-4), and Harry Teague (NM-2).

Of the 34 who voted against health care reform, the eleven who won re-election Tuesday are: House Representatives Jason Altmire (PA-4), John Barrow (GA-12), Dan Boren (OK-2), Tim Holden (PA-17), Larry Kissell (NC-8), Daniel Lipinski (IL-3), Stephen Lynch (MA-9), Mike McIntyre (NC-7), Collin Peterson (MN-7), Mike Ross (AR-4), and Heath Shuler (NC-11).
