Modi and Kishida met here after the Session 1 of the Day 1 of G20 Summit in what was their third meeting so far this year.
 
'Held productive talks with PM @kishida230. We took stock of India-Japan bilateral ties and the ground covered during India's G20 Presidency and the Japan's G7 Presidency. We are eager to enhance cooperation in connectivity, commerce and other sectors,' Modi posted on X.
