Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi has cancelled his three-nation tour to Europe amid the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, official sources said on Wednesday.
Modi was scheduled to travel to Croatia, Norway, and the Netherlands from May 13 to 17.
The prime minister was scheduled to visit Norway to attend the Nordic Summit.
The visit has been called off, sources said, according to a local news outlet, the Hindu.
The three countries have been informed about the decision, the sources said.
This comes as the Indian army on Tuesday launched attacks on Pakistan, killing at least 20 persons.
The strike followed an attack on Indian government-controlled territory Kashmir on April 22 in which several people were killed.
Meanwhile, Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday vowed to retaliate against India’s latest attack.
