Jaishankar, who arrived in the US capital on Sunday, will also meet other Cabinet-rank and senior Biden administration officials.
Apart from meeting US Secretary of State Blinken, the external affairs minister is also scheduled to interact with the think-tank community.
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace will host a conversation between Jaishankar and its president Mariano-Florentino (Tino) Cuellar on the future of US-India relations.
