BEIJING, May 9 (Xinhua) -- Senior Chinese graft-buster Zhao Hongzhu met with India's Central Vigilance Commissioner K.V. Chowdary on Monday.

"China and India are two great developing countries and face many common problems in fighting corruption...It is our hope that China and India will step up anti-corruption cooperation and work together to help forge a new order in international cooperation in fighting corruption," said Zhao.

China and India have reached a consensus on working toward a closer partnership of development, said Zhao, a member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee and deputy head of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Chowdary said India is ready to hold more anti-corruption exchanges with China and to push forward international cooperation in this regard.
