Will not allow Lankan territory to be used against India, says Dissanayake

Dissanayake's assurance comes amid concerns in New Delhi over China's attempts to increase its military influence over Colombo.

Dissanayake, who is on a three-day visit to India, held wide-ranging talks with Modi. Both the leaders decided to finalize a bilateral defence cooperation agreement and ramp up their energy ties by establishing electricity grid connectivity and multi-product petroleum pipelines.

In the meeting, Modi said he and the Sri Lankan president were in "full agreement" that the security interests of both countries are interconnected.
