Takaichi aims to deepen bilateral collaboration in a wide range of fields covering defence, economic issues and cutting-edge technologies such as semiconductors and artificial intelligence, according to the sources.
India’s high-speed railway project to link the western cities of Mumbai and Ahmedabad using Japanese bullet train technology is also expected to be brought up at the envisaged summit, the sources said.
Her trip would be part of the two nations’ practice of reciprocal visits by their leaders.
