In a significant development, China on Tuesday invited India to attend a summit of Asia and Pacific (APEC) leaders as Prime Minister Narendra Modi met President Xi Jinping and discussed various issues including the need to resolve the boundary question in an amicable manner.

The two leaders, who arrived almost at the same time here last evening for attending the BRICS summit, engaged shortly thereafter for what was described as "good discussions and good meeting".

The meeting was scheduled for 40 minutes but it went on for 80 as it was freewheeling discussion without any constraints.

Modi on Tuesday said that he had a "very fruitful meeting" with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Brazil.

"Had a very fruitful meeting with Chinese President (Mr) Xi Jinping. We discussed a wide range of issues," Modi said in a tweet.
