NAIROBI, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) -- Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta left the country on Monday night for a two-day visit to India aimed at boosting bilateral ties.

Kenya's State House said in a statement Tuesday that while in India, Kenyatta will hold talks with both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Pranab Mukherjee, among other top Indian government officials.

"The main areas of the bilateral talks will include collaboration in trade, healthcare, manufacturing, security, defence and information, communication and technology," the statement said.

The president will attend the inauguration of the 8th Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2017 and the Kenya-India Business Forum.

He is expected to drum up support for Kenya as an attractive destination for Indian investors, especially in the healthcare sector that India is known for.

He will also meet with Kenyans in India and hold a joint press conference with Modi, who paid a state visit to Kenya in July 2016.
