HM Leaves for India today

-->
His Majesty the King will be on a six day official tour to India from today. This is the first ever foreign visit by  His Majesty the King after his formal
coronation a year ago Indo Asian News Service  (IANS) reported that 'Relations between India and Bhutan are characterized by profound friendship, deep understanding and trust,' the external affairs ministry said here Thursday while announcing the visit. The report also said that India and Bhutan modernized their multi-faceted ties over two years ago by signing a revised treaty of friendship and cooperation that gave Thimphu more freedom in the crucial areas of foreign policy and non-lethal military purchases provided it does not impinge on New Delhi's interests.
A report by Prokerala.com said that His Majesty the King will hold wide-ranging talks with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh next week to explore opportunities for greater cooperation in areas of energy and economic development.  The report also said that senior ministers, including External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna and Home Minister P. Chidambaram, are among those who will call on the king of Bhutan, the idyllic Himalayan state that prides itself on measuring its national wealth in terms of gross national happiness.
His Majesty the King will be accompanied by the Foreign Minister Lyonpo Ugyen Tshering, the Economic Affairs Minister Lyonpo Khandu Wangchuk and other senior government officials.
His Majesty the King last visited India in February 2007.
