Britain’s Deputy Prime Minister, David Lammy, and British Indian minister for the Indo-Pacific Seema Malhotra have expressed their condolences to all those impacted by the terrorist attack in Delhi, which claimed 12 lives after a car explosion near Red Fort Metro station. At a special event in honour of the bilateral partnership hosted by the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development (FCDO) in London on Wednesday evening, Lammy described India as one of the UK’s most important partners . He said the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) clinched during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s UK visit in July marked a new chapter for the partnership, “not just economically, but in securing a safer, more prosperous future for both our countries”.
