Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted a picture of the BRICS leaders and Eurasian nations at Ufa.

Modi and his Pakistani counterpart Sharif will meet officially in Ufa on Friday morning after more than a year, a period that witnessed ups and downs in Indo-Pak relations over Islamabad's attitude towards elements instigating terror against India.

During Friday's meeting on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Summit, Modi is expected to voice concerns over cross-border terrorism and discuss the state of bilateral ties and their future direction.
