External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday said that there would be no rethinking on India's position on China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

"BRI rethink, the answer is no," Jaishankar said during a briefing on the 100-day achievements of the External Affairs Ministry under the second term of the Narendra Modi-led government.

India has time and again highlighted its concerns over the project, which has been labelled as a debt-trap by several leaders across the world.

New Delhi has previously said that no country can accept a project that ignores core concerns on territorial integrity.
