Indian home minister cancels meeting with US Congressional team

India’s Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde Tuesday cancelled his meeting with a senior US Congressional delegation as a mark of protest against the treatment meted out to Indiaˈs Deputy Consul General in New York.

 

 
 
However, Home Ministry officials said Shinde is busy in Parliament and, hence, he will not be in a position to meet the American delegation.
 
 
 
Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar had yesterday cancelled her meeting with the delegation as she felt it was not ˈappropriateˈ to meet the US Parliamentarians which had badly treated one of Indiaˈs senior diplomats.
