India has announced that it will send a high-level delegation to Iran to attend the state funeral of the country's former Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
According to India's Ministry of External Affairs, Minister of State for External Affairs Pabitra Margherita and the Governor of Bihar, Syed Ata Hasnain, will travel to Iran on July 3 to represent the Indian government at the funeral ceremonies.
The ministry said the decision reflects the long-standing historical and civilizational ties between India and Iran, as well as the strong people-to-people relationship that continues to support political and economic cooperation between the two countries.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who led Iran for 36 years, was killed on February 28 after the United States and Israel launched military strikes on Iran, triggering a wider regional conflict in the Gulf.
Iran's state funeral is scheduled to begin in Tehran on July 4 before concluding with Khamenei's burial in his hometown of Mashhad on July 9.
The visit by the Indian delegation underscores New Delhi's diplomatic engagement with Tehran despite ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
