Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj, who had to cut down on work last year due to her kidney problem, is back in action mode. After blazing the monsoon session of parliament with her inimitable speeches on the search for the missing Indians in Mosul as well as on India's stand in the Doklam situation, the minister is now beginning on her travel schedule, too.
Swaraj will head to Kathmandu on August 10 to attend the Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC) foreign minister's meet. This meet is ahead of the BOMSTEC main summit that Nepal will host later this year.
Swaraj will also go to Bhopal for the India ASEAN Youth Summit which will be held from August 14 to 19. The summit is part of the celebration of the 25 years of India ASEAN dialogue partnership.
