PM Modi, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman hold talks

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was given a ceremonial welcome at the Rashtrapati Bhawan in the presence of President Ram Nath Kovind ahead of his delegation-level meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday. The bilateral talks between India and the Gulf nation is seen by strategic affair experts  as a move to bolster the existing diplomatic and economic ties between the two countries. The Modi government is likely to raise the issue of terrorism in wake of the recently executed Pulwama terror attack which left over 40 of CRPF personnel succumbing to injuries.
