Kathmandu, May 11 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday thanked his Nepali counterpart  K.P Sharma Oli for accompanying him to Janaki Mandir.

"I thank the Prime Minister of Nepal, Mr. K.P Sharma Oli for accompanying me to the Janaki Mandir earlier today," Modi tweeted thanking the Himalayan nation's leader.

Earlier, the PM had arrived in Nepal  at the invitation of Nepalese Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli.

At 10:15 am, PM Modi's plane landed in historical Janakpur, a sub-metropolitan city, and offered prayers at the Janki Temple.

In the afternoon, PM Modi will travel to Kathmandu where he will meet Nepalese President Bidya Devi Bhandari and Vice President Nanda Bahadur Pun. In the evening, he will hold delegation-level talks with Oli, External Affairs MInistry Spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said.

The Prime Ministers are likely to sign a number of pacts and inaugurate the Rs. 6,000-crore Arun 3 project which is expected to generate around 900 MW of power.
