The Ministry of External Affairs here on Thursday launched an initiative titled ‘Videsh Aaya Pradesh ke Dwaar’ aimed at creating a pool of media professionals interested in foreign policy and guide them on connecting with the MEA.

The first of its kind initiative, launched by MEA’s Official Spokesperson & Joint Secretary (External Publicity) Raveesh Kumar, involves the Ministry’s engagement with the regional media based in different cities across the country.

Through direct interaction with the local media, the Ministry desires to communicate its foreign policy priorities in simple terms, highlight the benefits accruing to the common people through its diplomatic efforts and bring the domain of foreign policy closer to the people, Mr. Kumar stated.

Joint Secretary (Gulf) Nagendra Prasad gave a brief presentation about India’s relations with the Gulf. A general presentation about the functioning of the MEA was also made.
