PM to visit India in September

Nepali Prime Minister Prachanda will visit India next month and it will be his first “political visit” abroad after ascending to the post last week, Nepal’s Ambassador Durgesh Man Singh has said.

“He will come here next month before he goes for the UN General Assembly’s meeting in New York (scheduled for the third week of September). We are working out mutually convenient dates,” Singh told IANS in an interview.
“It will be his first political visit to any country,” the envoy said. Pushpa Kamal Dahal had visited China last week to attend the Olympic Games closing ceremony in Beijing. “Don’t read too much into the China visit. Had he become PM at the time of the SAARC summit, he would have first gone to Sri Lanka,” he said.
Singh was trying to allay concerns among some sections in India about Prachanda choosing China as his first overseas destination rather than India, which is traditionally the first port of call for any new Nepali PM.
“Ties with India are in a different category. It’s a pointless controversy,” he stressed. He, however, refused to be drawn into any comparison between Nepal’s ties with India and those with China.
