India has stepped up the pace of sending rescue teams and relief — field hospital and medicines under “Operation Dost” — to earthquake ravaged Turkey and Syria, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said here on Wednesday.
The confirmed death toll from the quake passed 11,000. “Every day we see ups and down in geopolitical situations but India has stable relations with countries. As per our policy of ‘Vasudaiva Kutumbakam’ — India stands forever for humanity,” Jaishankar told news agency ANI when asked about support to Turkey despite New Delhi’s differences with Ankara.
