The President can make a deal with India to create a Fund for shared cultural, educational, and scientific programs. U.S. government agencies help run it and can get money from the Fund.

(a) Agreement with Government of India; program purposes: The President can make an agreement with India's government to set up a "Fund." The Fund gives grants and other help for cultural, educational, and scientific programs both countries care about — things like exchanging people, sharing information, and doing joint study, research, and scholarly work. The agreement can also set up an endowment, foundation, or other tool to carry this out. (b) United States representatives: The people who represent the U.S. on any board that runs the Fund are picked by the President. Most of them must come from U.S. government agencies — especially agencies that run programs the Fund might help pay for. (c) Funding of programs: U.S. government agencies that run programs like the ones described in subsection (a) can get money straight from the Fund to pay for that work.
