DHAKA: India and China have signed 12 agreements in Delhi, one of which will see China investing $20bn in India’s infrastructure over five years.

At a news conference with Chinese president Xi Jinping, India’s PM Narendra Modi said ‘peace on the border’ was important for progress.

Talks came as India accused China of fresh territorial incursions in Ladakh.

China is one of India’s top trading partners but they vie for regional influence and dispute their border.

Modi and Xi made separate statements at the end of their talks in Delhi on Thursday, reports the BBC.
