Sarkozy is likely to bring up the Nuclear Liability bill issue with the PM. He may seek clarification on the issue of supplier's liability for nuclear reactor deal as India gets ready to buy six reactors from France.
Terror is also likely to figure in the talks between the two leaders. Sarkozy will also talk about G20 with PM Manmohan Singh. He may also discuss reform of international monetary system and reform of the global economy management etc.
In an address at ISRO centre at Bangalore on Saturday, Sarkozy said he is a "great admirer" of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh as he praised the Indian leader's "obsession" with peace, development and eradication of poverty in the country. He said whenever the Prime Minister meets him, he talks about this obsession.
