Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval at Hyderabad House in New Delhi on Tuesday for a fresh round of the Special Representatives (SR) dialogue on the boundary issue.

During the meeting, Doval underlined that India and China have “profited a lot since Kazan", referring to the decision taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping at the BRICS Summit in Kazan to revive dialogue mechanisms.

He noted that the border has remained “quiet" with “peace and tranquillity" prevailing over the past nine months.

The NSA expressed optimism that the latest round of SR talks would be “successful like the last one" and stressed the significance of the discussion in light of Prime Minister Modi’s upcoming participation in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit.

He also highlighted that India and China are celebrating 75 years of diplomatic relations this year.

The Chinese Foreign Minister is in India primarily to hold the SR dialogue on the boundary question with Ajit Doval.

Both Doval and Wang serve as the designated SRs for the border dialogue mechanism.

Doval travelled to China in December last and held the 23rd round of talks with Wang, weeks after Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping decided to revive various dialogue mechanisms between the two sides at their meeting in the Russian city of Kazan on the sidelines of the BRICS summit.

Wang Yi is also scheduled to meet Prime Minister Narender Modi later in the day.
