"Sustained engagement with Afghanistan. Chief Executive @DrAAbdullah meets PM @narendramodi in Delhi," external affairs ministry spokesman Vikas Swarup.

Abdullah Abdullah, who arrived here on Sunday on a five-day visit to India, is also scheduled to meet External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj.

He will leave for Jaipur on Tuesday where he will attend a conference on counter-terrorism.
