Chinese city of Shaoxing and Haryana's Rewari will have sister city relationship thus further strengthening bilateral relations between India and China, the statement said.
Khattar met Deputy Director of National People's Congress of Shaoxing, Ruan Jian Yong, in Shanghai today.
"We are engaged in friendship city relations with 41 foreign cities from 19 countries but it's regrettable that we have not concluded a friendship city relationship with an Indian city," a written communication in this regard said.
"It is our sincere hope that city of Shaoxing and District Administration Rewari could develop a form of friendship and exchange relationship on the basis of our successful business ties with Haryana State.
"We are convinced that exchanges between governments will facilitate the further development of enterprises in Shaoxing and Rewari, which will undoubtedly enhance our future exchanges and co-operation to a higher level," it said.
Ruan, who handed over the letter to Khattar, said that he would visit Haryana, especially district Rewari, for a sister city arrangement between Shaoxing and Rewari.
