Afghan Chief Executive Officer and Head of the Council of Ministers Abdullah Abdullah will arrive here on Sunday on a five-day visit to India.

On Monday, he will call on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, following which he will hold a bilateral meeting with External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj.

He will leave for Jaipur on Tuesday where he will attend a conference on counter-terrorism.

After spending Wednesday in New Delhi, he will depart from India on Thursday.

Abdullah Abdullah's visit to India comes in the wake of Prime Minister Modi's visit to Kabul in December when the new Afghan parliament building, constructed with India's aid, was inaugurated.
