Singapore Objects To Arvind Kejriwal's Tweet On 'New COVID-19 Strain', MEA Clarifies 'Delhi CM Does Not Speak For India'
Yesterday, Mr Kejriwal had urged the government to cancel air services with Singapore on what he called a new form of corona that came to Singapore and was extremely dangerous for children. High Commissioner clarified that Delhi CM had no competence to pronounce on Covid variants or civil aviation policy.
Singapore had earlier summoned the Indian envoy and conveyed strong objection to Arvind Kejriwal's tweet on a 'Singapore variant'.
Singapore and India have been solid partners in the fight against Covid-19.
Appreciate Singapore's role as a logistics hub and oxygen supplier. Their gesture of deploying military aircraft to help us speaks of our exceptional relationship. @VivianBala https://t.co/x7jcmoyQ5a
