"We were able to discuss numerous topics which will further economic and people-to-people linkages between India and USA. The friendship between our nations will continue to play a great role in furthering global good," he said.
The Prime Minister's Office, in a post on X, said, "Their discussions include a wide range of issues and will further deepen the bond between India and the USA."
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, and US NSA Jake Sullivan were also present in the meeting from the US side, while the Indian delegation included External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and NSA Ajit Doval.
PM Modi is scheduled to hold 15 bilateral meetings over the next two days for the G20 Summit.
The Prime Minister earlier said that these meetings would give an opportunity to review India's bilateral ties with these nations and further strengthen developmental cooperation.
"It is my firm belief that the New Delhi G20 Summit will chart a new path in human-centric and inclusive development," he posted on X, adding, "I look forward to productive discussions with world leaders over the next two days."
"I will also be holding bilateral meetings with several leaders and Heads of Delegation to further deepen the bonds of friendship and cooperation," PM Modi said.
On Saturday, he will hold bilateral meetings with leaders of the UK, Japan, Germany, and Italy besides attending the G20 events.
On Sunday, he will have a working lunch meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, sources said.
