SOUNDBITE: (English) Bill Clinton, former US President “My wife told me I had to come and I'm so glad I did because we worked hard to help the sisters to establish a house in Washington DC and we've worked hard to make it easier for Americans to adopt children from all around the world and bring them to the United States more quickly. And I hope that by coming here I can express my support and that it would be something I could do to support this mission, I believe in what they are doing and I am very grateful to them for what they are doing.“ New Delhi 14.

He waved to a crowd of one thousand people who were chanting his name as he arrived at the Missionaries of Charity orphanage in Calcutta. Sister Nirmala, who succeeded Mother Teresa as the head of the organisation, told reporters that Clinton had placed a bouquet of white gladiolas at her tomb and joined several nuns in singing the hymn, 'Make me a channel of your peace.' He also cuddled babies and danced with children at the orphanage she founded. Later, in the Indian capital New Delhi, Mr Clinton held informal talks with the Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee at his residence. He was expected to discuss what he's seen in Gujarat which was devestated by an earthquake in January. His seven day visit is sponsored by the American India Foundation which is raising money for the victims of the disaster. On Sunday, the former President is due in Rampur, in Uttar Pradesh state, to dedicate a women's polytechnic school in the name of his wife, U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.
