Deuba, who will be accompanied by a high level delegation, will also call on the president and the vice- president, an external affairs ministry release said.

"In recent years, India-Nepal partnership has witnessed significant growth in all areas of cooperation. The upcoming visit will provide an opportunity to both the sides for holding wide-ranging discussions on issues of mutual interest, and advancing age-old special ties of friendship between our two countries," it said.
