    New Delhi: The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) confirmed on Saturday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Jakarta, Indonesia on September 6 and 7 to participate in the ASEAN-India and East Asia summits.

    Modi is expected to meet the leaders of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), a group of ten countries with which India has close economic and security relations.

    There hasn't been a summit between ASEAN and India since last year, when the two sides upgraded their relationship to a comprehensive strategic partnership.—Inputs from Agencies
