Kathmandu, 17 April: Indian Ambassador to Nepal, Naveen Srivastav, paid a courtesy call on newly appointed Minister for Foreign Affairs, NP Saud, on Sunday. During the meeting held at Foreign Ministry (MOFA), issues of bilateral interest were discussed, the MOFA said.
Minister Saud expressed belief that Nepal and India have been enjoying cordial and friendly relations for long and it would be further strengthened in the days ahead.
During the meeting the duo discussed discussion about the upcoming visit of Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal to India., Ambassador Srivastav congratulated Minister Saud and extended best wishes for successful tenure. Minister Saud had assumed office on Sunday itself.
Minister Saud should answer to the public what urgency prompted him to meet Indian ambassador within a few moments of assuming charge of the ministry. What can be more undiplomatic work from the top diplomat of the country? Without even meeting the secretary of the ministry, Minister Saud has further encouraged Indian hegemony by holding parleys with envoy Srivastav.
