He will visit the neighbouring nation on June 7 and 8.

This is Dr. Jaishankar’s first visit abroad as the External Affairs Minister and reflects the importance that India attaches to its bilateral relationship with Bhutan, a close friend and neighbour.

"During the visit, External Affairs Minister is expected to receive audience with H.M.
