Oli to brief parliament on India visit agenda today
Just as Foreign Minister Pradeep Gyawali said earlier, Prime Minister's visit will mainly focus on building mutual trust with India which had soured following the Indian economic embargo during his first stint as Prime Minister two years ago.
The minister has already made it clear that no new agreements will be inked during his visit which will give priority to expediting implementation of the projects signed between the two neighbors in the past.
Oli, who is embarking on India visit at the invitation of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is scheduled to hold a meeting with the Indian president, vice president, prime minister and other senior ministers.
The current session of parliament is likely to be prorogued on Tuesday following the address of Prime Minister Oli.
