During PM Modi's visit to China in April, he held delegation-level talks with Chinese President Jinping and underscored the need for strengthening bilateral relations between India and China.
Similarly, Prime Minister Modi in May held a day-long informal summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Russia's Sochi, during the meet the two leaders vowed to strengthen their relationship and work towards a strong multipolar world. This was the first meeting between President Putin and Prime Minister Modi this year.
The theme of this year's summit is, 'BRICS in Africa - collaboration for inclusive growth and shared prosperity in the 4th industrial revolution'.
Besides Prime Minister Modi, heads of the four other BRICS nations - Brazil, Russia, China and South Africa - will take part in the meeting. All nations are expected to deliberate upon global issues, international peace and security, global governance and trade issues among others.
