Elbegdorj was received by President Pratibha Devisingh Patil and Prime
Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh in the forecourt of Rashtrapati Bhavan. Talking to
reporters, President Elbegdorj said his visit would emphasise on developing the
bilateral relationship between both countries. "This visit will give emphasis
to the development of our bilateral relations in many different avenues and prospects
and we do believe to elevate our relationships to a newer level," he added. Elbegdorj
will hold talks with Dr. Singh, which will include a focus on bilateral, regional
and international issues of mutual interest. On Tuesday, he will visit Agra, Gaya
and Mumbai. On Wednesday, he is expected to meet and interact with captains of
Indian industry in Mumbai and is likely to pitch Mongolia as an attractive investment
destination. He will leave for Mongolian capital Ulan Batter the same evening.

besides ink bilateral pacts on health and statistics. India may also sanction
a stabilization loan to Mongolia. This is President Elbegdorj's first official
visit abroad after assuming office in June 2009, indicating the importance that
Mongolia attaches to its relations with India. Elbegdorj is being accompanied
by a 25-member Mongolian business high-level official delegation, including the
