India news: Modi, Putin to hold bilateral talks in SCO summit

The Indian prime minister will meet Putin on the sidelines of the SCO summit in Bishkek at the end of the month. Meanwhile, India has stepped up efforts as hundreds remain missing after floods in Nepal.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to have bilateral talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin during the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Bishkek, Kyrgyz Republic. The meeting will likely cover the entirety of their bilateral relationship. Both nations are permanent members of the SCO, alongside China, Pakistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Iran.
