India and Bhutan enjoy unique ties of friendship, which are characterised by deep understanding and mutual trust. The Royal visit of Their Majesties is in keeping with the long-standing tra- dition of regular high-level exchanges between the two countries.

The Royal visit would provide an opportunity to both the sides to review the entire gamut of bilateral cooperation, including befitting celebrations for the golden jubilee of Bhutan and In- dia’s diplomatic relations in 2018, and to advance the special bilateral ties of friendship and cooperation.
