Bhandari was scheduled to visit India in May last year but her visit was cancelled as the Nepalese cabinet did not endorse the visit. The reason cited was lack of preparations on part of the government.
During the five-day visit, Bhandari will hold talks with President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. She is also to hold talks with Vice-President Hamid Ansari, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, Home Minister Rajnath Singh and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
The visit of Nepalese president will focus on expanding cooperation between the two close strategic neighbours. Ties between both the countries had strained last year after Madhesi community held agitation.
