Tulsi Gabbard, the first Hindu American in the US Congress, Thursday called on Home Minister Rajnath Singh, with whom she discussed various issues including terrorism and cyber security.

"Met US Congress member @TulsiGabbard today. We discussed a range of issues including terrorism and cyber security," the minister tweeted.

According to a home ministry statement, "The sole Hindu member of the US Congress and a Democrat from Hawaii discussed broad range of issues with the union home minister, including terrorism and cyber security."

"The two leaders jointly condemned the brutal killing of school children in Peshawar," the statement said.

Gabbard informed Rajnath Singh about the positive environment in the US for the new government in India and mentioned that the two countries have a "greater potential for mutual cooperation in the field of security", the statement added.
