“India has age-old unique time-tested ties of friendship with the country,” external affairs ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said in his weekly media briefing here.
“We look forward to working with the next democratically elected government in Nepal to advance our close and multi-faceted partnership across all sectors and to support Nepal in its pursuit of peace, stability, economic prosperity for all round development,” he said.
Nepal’s CPN-UML emerged as the largest party in the Himalayan nation. The vote count for Parliament and provincial assembly elections in Nepal ended on Wednesday.
