Prime Minister Narendra Modi's scheduled two-day visit to Bhutan on March 21-22 is postponed due to unfavorable weather conditions over Paro airport. The Ministry of External Affairs stated that new dates for the visit are being coordinated between the two nations. The visit, part of India's 'Neighbourhood First Policy,' aimed to strengthen ties with Bhutan. Bhutanese Prime Minister Tobgay recently visited India. The delay underscores the significance of bilateral relations, rooted in trust and cooperation since 1968. Formalized by the Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation, India-Bhutan relations remain a priority for both nations.
