Indian Foreign Secretary Vinay Mohan Kwatra is due to visit Nepal on February 13.
Kwatra will arrive for a two-day official visit to Nepal on February 13 at the invitation of his Nepali counterpart, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Friday. He will return on February 14.
“The foreign secretaries of Nepal and India will discuss various matters of bilateral cooperation such as connectivity, energy trade, agriculture, health and culture, among others,” according to the statement. “The visit is a continuation of the regular exchange of visits between the two friendly neighbors. The visit will be an opportunity to further expand and deepen the ties between Nepal and India.”
Kwatra was serving as India’s envoy to Nepal when he was appointed foreign secretary to succeed Harsh Vardhan Shringla last April.
