Tulsi Gabbard to attend intel chiefs' meet in New Delhi

US national intelligence director Tulsi Gabbard will visit India soon to attend the annual meeting of intelligence chiefs that New Delhi is hosting, making her the first senior official from the Trump administration to undertake a trip to this country.

Gabbard took to X to announce her visits to Japan, Thailand and India, with a brief stop in France before returning to Washington, D.C.

India hosts a meeting of intelligence chiefs of various countries annually ahead of the Raisina Dialogue and it is scheduled for March 16-17 in New Delhi.


Canada's intelligence chief Daniel Rogers will also visit India to attend the meet, in what would be an initial signal of thawing of ties that were at a nadir under PM Justin Trudeau. Other participants will include intelligence chiefs from West Asian nations and representatives from Russia.
