Credential Ceremony for Envoys Deferred

New Delhi, May 15 (PTI) In a significant development, a pre-scheduled ceremony for the newly-appointed envoys of various countries to present their credentials to President Droupadi Murmu has been deferred. This ceremony was initially planned for Thursday at Rashtrapati Bhavan, according to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). It is understood that the newly-appointed ambassadors from Turkey, Thailand, Costa Rica, and St. Kitts, along with the High Commissioner of Bangladesh, were expected to present their credentials to the President.

"The credential ceremony at Rashtrapati Bhavan, which was to be held today, has been deferred due to scheduling issues," the MEA stated. The Ministry, however, did not disclose the names of the envoys who were set to present their credentials. The postponement of this ceremony occurs amidst strong criticism of Turkey in India due to its support for Pakistan during the ongoing conflict between Indian and Pakistani militaries.
