India's Assurance Over Lanka Economic Recovery As Minister Visits Colombo

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Thursday met Sri Lanka's top leadership and conveyed India's commitment to increase investment flows to hasten the debt-ridden island nation's economic recovery. "Look forward to my discussions with the leadership tomorrow morning," Mr Jaishankar tweeted after he held talks with his Sri Lankan counterpart Ali Sabry soon after his arrival in Colombo, as India informed the IMF its assurance which the global lender wants from creditors for providing a much-needed bailout to the cash-strapped island nation.
