The Minister was supposed to land in New Delhi today for meetings with his Indian counterpart Nirmala Sitharaman and External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar to finalise on financial cooperation for Sri Lanka, to secure supplies of essential foods and fuel in the midst of the foreign exchange crisis.

According to informed sources, the visit will be rescheduled for a future date shortly.

India has already offered US $ 500 million credit line for fuel and US $ 1 billion facility for the import of food items and pharmaceuticals. (Kelum Bandara)
