These are very important Sessions, the NPC and CPPCC. We expect very important outcomes of the sessions.

Deepening reform is an important dimension for the “Four Comprehensives” talked about by President Xi Jinping.

China has already reaped rich harvest as a result of the policy of reform and opening up during the last three decades, and no doubt, the reforms have been deepened. Impact will be beneficial not only for China, but for the region and the world as the whole.

I wish China very well in this endeavor. And I believe that as a result of this policy of reform and opening up, our relationship between India and China will become even closer in different areas, including our engagement in our strategic partnership.

Indian ambassador to China
