In a statement ahead of his first trip to Kabul in six years, Mr. Singh said what happens in Afghanistan has an impact on India, and that the region cannot prosper unless Afghanistan's rebuilding efforts succeed.
Indian officials said that Mr Singh was likely to announce a new multimillion dollar aid package for Kabul.
Officials said that prime minister also wanted to discuss the death of Osama bin Laden with Afghan President Hamid Karzai, after the al-Qaida leader was killed last week by U.S. forces in Pakistan.
Mr. Singh last traveled to Afghanistan in 2005. Mr. Karzai has made several visit to New Delhi, with the most recent trip in February of this year.
