Rajnath Singh anticipated to attend SCO meet in China

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh is likely to visit Qingdao, China, for a key Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Defence Ministers's meeting—his first visit there since the 2020 Galwan clash. This trip comes after India and China agreed to restart border patrols and pull back troops along the Line of Actual Control, making it a pretty significant step for both countries.

TL;DR

India backs China on SCO leadership this year

Singh's visit is all about improving India-China relations. Talks are expected to cover reopening the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra, boosting air links, and other ways to work together. India has also shown support for China leading the SCO this year, signaling both sides want more cooperation and better understanding moving forward.
