The Indian High Commission in Sri Lanka has categorically dismissed for the second time in as many months the speculative media reports about New Delhi sending its troops to Colombo, where thousands of angry protesters stormed embattled President Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s official residence and set Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe’s house on fire amidst the ongoing economic crisis.
“The High Commission would like to categorically deny speculative reports in sections of media and social media about India sending her troops to Sri Lanka”, the High Commission said.
