During his brief visit, Jaishankar is learnt to have conveyed India’s concern regarding the agitation in the Terai region as well as goodwill on the constitution-making process.
In Nepal, the leaders of major political parties have hailed the constitution as a long-awaited dream of the people fulfilled after 70 years.
