Home Minister Rajnath Singh today called on Bahrain King Hamad bin Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa and Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa and shared with them India's concern over terrorism.
While Singh met the King at Al-Safriya palace, he met the Crown Prince at Gudaibiya Palace.
"We shared concern over terrorism and human trafficking," Singh tweeted after the meeting.
The Home Minister also met Bahrain's Deputy Prime Minister Shaikh Ali Bin Khalifa Al Khalifa and Foreign Minister Shaikh Khalid Bin Ahmed Al Khalifa separately.
Earlier, in his meeting with Bahrain Interior Minister Rashid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa, Singh conveyed to him that terrorism emanating from Pakistan remains its most important concern and support from across the border has incited the current unrest in Jammu and Kashmir.
Singh, who is on a three-day visit to the Gulf country, apprised Abdullah about Islamabad's open support and participation to glorify slain Hizbul Mujahideen militant Burhan Wani in Pakistan, saying it indicates continued free movement that terrorists and their supporters enjoy there.
