Nepal Prime Minister Balen Shah is set to hold separate meetings with the Indian and Chinese ambassadors, ending his self-imposed policy of avoiding one-on-one meetings with foreign envoys, according to media reports and government sources. Shah is expected to meet India's Ambassador Naveen Srivastava and China's Ambassador Zhang Maoming on the same day, reflecting Nepal's effort to maintain balanced ties with both neighbours. Since taking office in March, Shah had preferred joint meetings with diplomats instead of individual engagements. The move comes after his government completed its first 100 days in office and signals a shift in diplomatic outreach. (PC: NDTV)
