In a statement issued by the Indian Ministry, the two sides agreed on the creation of a two joint working group with its main intention focused on dealing fake notes. Also, a 24-7 hotline dedicated to the exchange of information will be established.
Other things mentioned in the statement are e-Visa, telecom fraud, and security matters. The meeting was held in New Delhi.
In a separate meeting, Secretary of the Central Political and Legal Commission of the Communist Party of China Meng Jianzhu together with other representatives met with Narendra Modi, India's Prime Minister.
During the meeting, joint efforts to curb terrorism was a key among other issues discussed.
"The intensive exchange of high-level visits between India and China over the last two years is complimentary," PM Narendra said. "Such visits contribute to a strategic understanding between the two countries."
During the meeting, PM Narendra encouraged the idea of better cooperation between the two states in the fight against terrorism.
At a later dinner hosted by Indian Minister Rajnath Singh, Singh requested that China backs up India in efforts to delegate chief of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) Masood Azhar as a terrorist under UN Resolution 1267.
"Leaders of terrorist groups including JeM leader Azhar, Lashkar-e-Taiba leader Hafiz Saeed, and Hizbul Mujahideen leader salahuddin roam freely in Pakistan and preach terrorism," Rajnaath said.
As discussed in previous meetings, fake currency notes were also tackled as well as the apprehension of ULFA chief Paresh Barua.
