The decision comes as the two countries look ahead to the 75th anniversary of their diplomatic ties in 2025.
The meeting, which also involved discussions with Chinese Communist Party leader Liu Jianchao, focused on various areas of collaboration. The resumption of the Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage, an event of great significance to millions of people in both nations, was one of the key highlights. Additionally, both sides agreed to reinstate direct air connectivity, which will further enhance travel between the two countries.

This positive turn in diplomatic relations signals a new era of cooperation between India and China, with a focus on both cultural and economic engagement. As the two countries prepare to mark 75 years of diplomatic ties, these initiatives will pave the way for even stronger bilateral relations in the coming years.
