India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi commenced a four-day official visit to Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan from August 29 to 30, followed by a trip to Bishkek for the 26th Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit from August 31 to September 1. During this visit, Modi aims to strengthen bilateral ties and attend various official engagements.
He will engage in bilateral talks with Uzbekistan's President Shavkat Mirziyoyev in Tashkent, visit significant landmarks like the Shastri Memorial and the Mahatma Gandhi Centre at Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies, and participate in multilateral and bilateral meetings at the SCO Summit in Bishkek.
