West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday, while reacting to the news of India and Japan deferring Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's visit to a mutually convenient date in near future, said that it will be a blot on our country.
"It will be a blot on our country," Banerjee said.
India and Japan have decided to defer the visit of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to a mutually convenient date in the near future, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said earlier in the day.
"With reference to the proposed visit of Japanese PM @AbeShinzo to India, both sides have decided to defer the visit to a mutually convenient date in the near future," External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar tweeted.
The MEA had earlier announced that the India-Japan annual summit will take place from December 15 to 17.
