Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished China on their National Day today.
"My greetings to the people of China on their National Day," he tweeted.
"There have been strong linkages between our nations for years. Together we can make this world a much better place. The growth of India and China offers a great opportunity to realize our dream of an Asian century," he added.
Prime Minister Modi further said that President Xi's visit to India in September 2014 and his visit to China in May 2015 covered significant ground in advancing the partnership.
"I warmly recall my talks with President Xi and Premier Li," he said.
"I would like to congratulate you all for your active enthusiasm and participation during the first ever International Day of Yoga," he added.
Prime Minister Modi also said he was confident that the ties between both nations would become stronger in the years to come.
"May our two great nations continue working together for the common development and prosperity of humanity," he said.
