The SCO, which is currently the largest regional bloc in the world, has eight permanent members- India, China, Russia, USA, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan.

He will also be meeting Iranian President, Ebrahim Raisi.
Modi’s presence at the SCO Summit is expected to be a short and low-key affair.
