New Delhi, June 3, 2026 \u2014 Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with Rabi Lamichhane in New Delhi during the Nepali leader’s official visit to India, marking a significant step in strengthening India\u2013Nepal political ties.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lamichhane’s visit included meetings with senior Indian leaders, including External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and BJP leaders. The meeting with Modi came amid growing diplomatic engagement between the two neighboring countries and follows earlier discussions between the two leaders after the RSP’s election victory in Nepal. <\/span><\/p>\n
