India's heads of missions in foreign countries today deliberated over the country's foreign policy priorities, including the role of India's soft power in achieving its objectives, during a three-day conference here.

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj had yesterday inaugurated the 9th Heads of Mission Conference themed 'Unprecedented Outreach:Unparalleled Outcomes".

Think.Ponder.Debate. Day 2 of the Annual HOMs Conference continues with intense deliberations on India's foreign policy priorities, including the role of India's soft power in achieving our objectives, Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Raveesh Kumar tweeted.

President Ram Nath Kovind has also met the envoys at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.

The President told them that the litmus test of India's engagement with the external world is what it is able to do to propel domestic growth and development.
