New Delhi: Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, who arrived in Delhi on Monday evening for a five-day visit, chose a rather unconventional method to travel. Instead of a VIP motorcade, he hopped onto a chartered bus to reach his hotel in the national capital.
During his visit, Mr Loong will hold talks with PM Narendra Modi and other leaders on a range of issues including security, trade and investment.
The Singapore PM will also meet President Pranab Mukherjee and attend a reception for Singaporeans based in India. External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will also call on him.
Mr Loong is accompanied by his wife Ho Ching, a number of key ministers and senior officials.
He will also visit Udaipur on October 5-6. Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje will call upon him and also host him to a lunch.
In Udaipur, Lee will attend the launch of Centre of Excellence for Tourism Training as part of skills development collaboration under the India-Singapore Strategic Partnership signed in November 2015.
The Singapore PM last visited India in December 2012 to attend the ASEAN-India Commemorative Summit.
