India and China are cautiously warming ties after years of tension. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met Prime Minister Narendra Modi, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, and National Security Adviser Ajit Doval in New Delhi. The talks covered flights, trade, border security, water issues, and strategic supplies. The discussions mark the first serious step in years to reset relations. PM Modi is set to travel to China for the SCO Summit, his first visit in seven years. Both sides also spoke about easing cross-border travel, resuming trade, and ensuring stability along the Himalayan frontier. Water security and China’s mega dam project in Tibet were also on the table, as well as assurances on supplies critical to India’s economy. The big question now is whether these talks signal a lasting change, or simply cautious progress in a fragile relationship. Stay tuned to Moneycontrol for more global updates.
