Today Prime Minister Christopher Luxon jets off on his latest diplomatic effort, heading to India while his Deputy Winston Peters prepares to go to the US.

India's projected to be the world's third-largest economy by 2028 and the US is already one of our most important trading partners.

Mr Luxon will be hoping to generate some good news headlines after another bad week for the government's cut-price school lunch programme.

RNZ Deputy Political reporter Craig McCulloch is travelling with the PM.

Susie asked him to tell me about the focus of the trip to India.
