Tobgay had yesterday met Modi and the two had held wide-ranging talks covering bilateral and regional issues of "mutual interest" and expressed satisfaction at the "excellent" state of bilateral relations. In their talks, Modi and Tobgay are also expected to deliberate on the situation at the Doklam tri-junction, the site of a 73-day-long standoff between Indian and Chinese armies last year.
