New Delhi: Nepalese Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba arrived in New Delhi on Friday on a three-day visit.

According to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), a high-level delegation is accompanying Deuba. PM Debua’s visit is expected to inject fresh momentum into bilateral ties.

He and Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hold wide-ranging talks on Saturday, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar are also expected to call on the visiting leader.

It is Deuba’s first bilateral visit abroad after becoming prime minister in July last year for a fifth time following a spell of political turmoil in Kathmandu.

Deuba had visited India in each of his four earlier stints as prime minister of Nepal. His last visit to India in his capacity as the prime minister was in 2017.

“A fond welcome to a special friend. PM of Nepal @SherBDeuba arrives in India for an official visit from 01-03 April 2022. This is his first bilateral visit abroad after assuming office in July 2021,” External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Arindam Bagchi tweeted.
