Nepal Army chief General Rajendra Chhetri will embark on a six-day official visit to India starting tomorrow to enhance military cooperation between the two countries and strengthen bilateral ties.
Chhetri is visiting India at the invitation of Indian Army chief General Bipin Rawat.
Besides meeting his Indian counterpart in Delhi, Chhetri will also visit the Indian Military Academy in Dehradun, according to Nepal Army headquarters. The Nepal Army chief will observe the officers' training programme in Dehradun as chief reviewing officer.
Such high-level visits between Nepal and India will enhance military cooperation between the two countries and strengthen bilateral ties, a statement released by the Nepal Army said.
A joint military exercise 'Surya Kiran', involving around 300 army personnel of India and Nepal, is underway at Pithoragarh in Uttarakhand, where they are sharing their experiences in counterinsurgency and counterterror operations.
Indian Army chief Rawat had paid a three-day visit to Nepal in February.
