Vishwesh Negi named India's new Ambassador to Iran
The government has announced the appointment of Vishwesh Negi, a Joint Secretary at the Ministry of External Affairs, as the upcoming Indian Ambassador to Iran. Negi, an Indian Foreign Service officer from the 2002 batch, previously handled policy issues related to bilateral ties with Pakistan.
