She posted a tweet after people on Twitter, including a Parliamentarian from Nepal, pointed out that Modi addressed Nepali people in Janakpur earlier this month and not Indians.

“This was a mistake on my part. I sincerely apologise for this,” Swaraj tweeted tonight along with a video of her comments about Modi’s efforts to reach out to Indian dispora abroad, including in Nepal.
