Nepal attaches high priority to Indian investments, he told Jaishankar.
"Nepal's internal problem will be resolved soon and the government's talks with the agitating Madhesi parties were heading towards positive direction," Oli said.
Jaishankar, who arrived here last night to take part in the SAARC meetings, called on Prime Minister Oli at his office at Singhdurbar here before flying to the picturesque Pokhara valley to attend the Foreign Secretary-level SAARC meeting.

Jaishankar, on his part, said India wants to see political stability and development in Nepal.
"We want to see political stability and development of Nepal as India's security is linked to the prosperity of Nepal," Jaishankar was quoted as saying by Prime Minister's Foreign Affairs Advisor Gopal Khanal.
Jaishankar also appreciated the Prime Minister for playing a "decisive role" in the current situation as the country was facing a crisis.
He said the Indian government has confidence in the Nepalese government and India is ready to help Nepal in whatever way it can.
During the meeting, Jaishankar told the Madhesi leaders that India wants to see Nepal's internal problem resolved internally and cautioned that any problem arising in the southern plains bordering India will have a negative impact on India's security.
Madhesi leaders briefed Jaishankar about the current situation in Terai and reviewed the Madhesi agitation, said Laxman Lal Karna, Vice President of the Sadbhavana Party, one of the members of the Madhesi Front.
He said the Madhsei Front will be forced to re-launch its agitation if the government did not take an initiative towards fulfilling their demands.
