Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could be visiting India in February or March, before elections in both countries. If this materialises it would be his second visit here in as many months.
Both the sides have exchanged their preferred dates but there is no final decision on it, according to sources.
Netanyahu visited India in January 2018 while Prime Minister Narendra Modi travelled to Tel Aviv in 2017, becoming the first Indian Prime Minister to tour Israel.
Both the leaders spoke over the phone earlier this month when Israel’s National Security Adviser Meir Ben-Shabbath visited New Delhi. Ben-Shabbat also met National Security Adviser Ajit Doval.
Netanyahu is understood to have expressed his desire to visit India.
Netanyahu has undertaken many trip abroad in recent times. He visited Muslim majority states Oman and Chad Muslim majority countries. Israel will hold elections for the Knesset (parliament) on April 9.
