Nepalese PM KP Oli made a strong pitch for investment from India. He said, “Nepal will need massive investment; many of its sectors are virgin territory for investment. I invite Indian companies to come and invest in Nepal (that) is now safe for foreign investment.”
Oli discussed possible deals in waterways and an expansion of an India-backed railway to Kathmandu as well as trade deficit with India and push for India to complete previously promised infrastructure projects.
Oli took up various issues with PM Modi including the early execution of India-funded projects in Nepal, implementation of the Mahakali water-sharing treaty, and construction of integrated check-posts.
