Mint Views | India-China summit should focus on the tangibles

Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to arrive on October 11 for an informal summit at Mamallapuram in Tamil Nadu. The upcoming summit is expected to be a successor of the Wuhan summit which saw a reset in the diplomatic relations between both the Indian prime minister and the Chinese president.
