Gor on India visit, likely to take charge as ambassador in Jan

Washington, Oct. 11 -- Incoming US ambassador to India Sergio Gor arrived in New Delhi on Friday for a six-day visit, though he will not formally assume his post during the trip, the State department said. According to people aware of the matter, Gor will likely take charge as ambassador in January. Gor, 38, confirmed by the Senate this week, is travelling with deputy secretary of state for management and resources Michael J Rigas through October 14. The visit focuses on administrative and management tasks at the US Embassy in New Delhi, which has operated without an ambassador for most of this year.P12
