MEA dismisses baseless reference linking PM Modi's 2017 Israel visit to Epstein emails, stressing it as an improper conflation of unrelated events.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has issued a statement refuting claims made in recent emails from the Epstein estate that referenced Prime Minister Narendra Modi's official 2017 visit to Israel. While the Congress party raised concerns about the Prime Minister's name being mentioned in documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, the MEA has clarified that such references are unfounded and misleading.
Stating that PM Modi's visit was a significant diplomatic achievement, the MEA emphasized that it should not be associated with the Epstein scandal. The matter remains under investigation as authorities work to ensure accuracy in such communications.
