Relations with India crucial: Prachanda
On his maiden visit here after becoming Nepal's Prime Minister, Prachanda on Monday dispelled perception that his government was tilting more towards China, saying relations with India remain "crucial and vital". Prachanda, the first Maoist leader to head Nepalese government, held wide-ranging talks with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and said Nepal's ties with India cannot be compared with its relations with China.
