The ongoing diplomatic engagement between Nepal and India reached a pivotal point as the seventh edition of the Joint Commission meeting commenced in Kathmandu.
Led by Nepali Minister for Foreign Affairs NP Saud and Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar, the two delegations engaged in discussions covering more than three dozen diverse agendas of shared interest and concern.
The collaborative efforts are poised to result in the signing of two significant agreements, alongside the inauguration of three cross-border transmission lines linking Nepal and India.
Earlier interactions between Foreign Minister Jaishankar and President Ram Chandra Poudel, as well as Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal, set the tone for the deliberations.
Adding to the diplomatic milestones, both nations inked a historic deal facilitating the long-term exchange of 10,000 megawatts of electricity, underlining the commitment to mutual cooperation and progress.
