November 12, 2013 20:30
Notwithstanding demands for a total boycott from political parties in Tamil Nadu, External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid leaves tomorrow on a five-day visit to Colombo for representing India in the three-day CHOGM Summit to be held from November 15.
Khurshid will be deputising for Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, whose attendance became a casualty in the competitive politics of Tamil Nadu, where the state assembly has passed resolutions for total boycott of CHOGM by India.
