Summary
On News@7 this June 2, Taniya Dutta brings to you the evening’s most crucial headlines. India on Tuesday rejected any role for third parties in resolving its boundary dispute with Nepal, asserting that existing bilateral mechanisms are sufficient to address all border-related issues. The statement came after Nepalese Prime Minister Balendra Shah suggested involving China and the United Kingdom in discussions. Meanwhile, South African Deputy President Shipokosa Paulus Mashatile held talks with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on strengthening cooperation in trade, investment and infrastructure. In Odisha, bus fares were increased across all categories after diesel prices rose by Rs 4.81 per litre during the second half of May. Tune In! Produced by Taniya Dutta Sound mixed by Rohan Bharti
