PM Modi meets Chinese President Xi Jinping on sidelines of BRICS Summit

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had a “very productive” meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday during which he emphasised the need to maintain the “momentum” generated by their recent meetings and provide “proper instructions” to their militaries to maintain peace at the border. The two leaders held a two-day informal summit in the Chinese city of Wuhan in late April and then they met on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit in Qingdao, China in June.
