Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached China on Friday for his first visit to the country in seven years. He is scheduled to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit, where he will hold meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin, along with other participating leaders.

Officials said the summit will provide India with an opportunity to highlight its stance on global challenges, including terrorism, economic stability, and emerging geopolitical shifts. Modi’s participation underlines India’s commitment to strengthening ties with SCO members and engaging in dialogue on regional and international issues.
