Kishida had said on Sunday that the objective of his visit to India was to further deepen the "special strategic and global partnership" between the two countries. Additionally, the agenda behind his visit to India was to speed up bilateral ties between the two nations in different areas and explore convergence between India's presidency of G20 and Japan's presidency of the G7 to address various global problems.
