Sinha puts off Sri Lanka visit

New Delhi Aug. 15. The External Affairs Minister, Yaswant Sinha, has put off his two-day visit to Sri Lanka beginning August 17, official sources here said today.

Mr. Sinha, who was to co-chair the Indo-Sri Lanka Joint Commission meeting in Colombo, is understood to have deferred the visit due to the Opposition-sponsored no-confidence motion against the NDA Government.
