Minister of State for External Affairs General V K Singh went to Iraq on Sunday to bring back the mortal remains of the 38 Indians out of 39 killed in Mosul area of Iraq by the Islamic State (IS). The mortal remains of 38 Indians were brought back on Monday by a special aircraft. The special Indian Air Force aircraft landed in Amritsar at around 2:30 PM.
