Modi tells Beijing to reconsider its approach


BEIJING: Visiting Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi told his Chinese counterpart that Beijing needs to “reconsider its approach” to relations between the Asian giants, as the Hindu nationalist leader departed from the usual diplomatic pleasantries.

Modi, who despite his hardline reputation has moved to engage with Beijing since his election last year, made the remarks after being welcomed to the Great Hall of the People by Premier Li Keqiang. “I stressed the need for China to reconsider its approach on some of the issues that hold us back from realising full potential of our partnership,” Modi said.
