Nepal Army Chief Gen Rajendra Chhetri has returned home after a six-day official visit to India.

Gen Chhetri visited India at the invitation of his Indian counterpart Gen Bipin Rawat.

During the visit, the Nepal army chief held talks with Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, the defence secretary, national security advisor, the navy chief and other high-level military officials, according to a press release by Nepal Army headquarters.

Such high level military visits would further strengthen friendly relations existing between two armies and help deepen mutual cooperation and promote bilateral interests between them, the Nepal Army said.

Gen Chhetri was also the Chief Reviewing Officer at a training programme at the Indian Military Academy in Dehradun.
