Xinhua, November 2, 2016 Adjust font size:

Nepali Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal said on Wednesday that China, Nepal and India can forge a successful trilateral partnership with sole focus on economic growth and development.

Inaugurating a two-day seminar entitled "Nepal and India: Exploring New Vistas" jointly organized by New Delhi-based India Foundation and Kathmandu-based Neeti Anusandhan Pratisthan, the Nepali premier said "Nepal's location in between two growing economies of India and China offers promising future. We can forge a successful trilateral partnership."

He said the partnership, with focus on economic growth and development, will be economically rewarding and beneficial to people of all three countries.

The seminar is being organized coinciding the state visit of Indian President Pranab Mukherjee to Nepal, which began on Wednesday.

During the two-day seminar, leading intellectuals, former ambassadors, economists and politicians from Nepal and India will dwell on economic, social, political and cultural relations and ways to further strengthen the relations between the two South Asian neighbors. Enditem
