A statement issued by the ministry of home affairs said “The dialogue covered a wide range of issues, including homeland security, cyber security, extradition cases, migration and mobility etc.” The said issue was raised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well, during his short bilateral exchange with his British counterpart Boris Johnson on the sidelines of the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow in November last year. Bhalla also impressed upon the UK authorities the need to expedite the pending extradition cases.
