Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Sher Bahadur Deuba on his appointment as the Prime Minister of Nepal and winning the vote of confidence in Parliament in a telephone conversation on Monday.
He also discussed strengthening of bilateral relations with his counterpart.
“Recalling the unique and millenia-old people-to-people linkages that underpin the special friendship between India and Nepal, the leaders agreed to work together to enhance bilateral cooperation in all areas,” according to a statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs.
The two leaders discussed ways to strengthen co-operation and co-ordination in the context of ongoing effort against the Covid-19 pandemic.
Deuba secured a comfortable majority in the House of Representatives on Sunday with only 83 votes cast against him.
