43:30Now PlayingIt comes as Boris Johnson has been forced to cancel his forthcoming trip to India amid the continuing Covid-19 pandemic.
A joint statement released by both governments said: "In the light of the current coronavirus situation, Prime Minister Boris Johnson will not be able to travel to India next week.
"Instead, Prime Ministers Modi and Johnson will speak later this month to agree and launch their ambitious plans for the future partnership between the UK and India.
"They will remain in regular contact beyond this, and look forward to meeting in person later this year.”
The decision comes amid growing fears of a double mutation variant which has two new significant mutations in the spike protein which helps it infect cells and evade the immune system.
Figures released by Public Health England (PHE) at the weekend have shown there have been 73 cases found in England and another four in Scotland.
