Hope India will continue to assist...: Sonia Gandhi solidarity note for Sri Lanka

India Today  

Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Sunday expressed solidarity with Sri Lanka as the island nation plunged into serious trouble when fresh protests erupted in the capital city over economic collapse. As the condition in the neighbouring country deteriorates, Sonia Gandhi on Sunday issued a statement saying the Congress has been following with concern the evolving political situation in Sri Lanka. "We hope India will continue to assist the people and government of Sri Lanka as they deal with the difficulties of the current situation," she said, adding, "The Congress party also urges the international community to extend all assistance and support to Sri Lanka."
