India and China on Tuesday agreed to strengthen bilateral cooperation in trade and investment, and to seek opportunities to promote Chinese investments in the Indian economy.
The two countries also exchanged views on policies and measures to address the challenges for attaining sustainable growth, and held in-depth discussions on sharing experiences and best practices in the areas of electric mobility, clean energy, higher education and Special Economic Zones (SEZs).
The issues came up for discussion during the third edition of the DRC-NITI Aayog Dialogue between India's NITI Aayog and China's Development Research Council, held in Beijing.
