External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar addressed a press conference on March 31, where he lashed out at Congress and Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) over the relevance of the Katchatheevu issue. He stated that the public has the right to know how Katchatheevu was given away to Sri Lanka, adding, "Congress & DMK have approached this matter as though they have no responsibility for this."

He also provided important background details regarding the maritime boundary and seizure: "In 1974, India & Sri Lanka concluded an agreement where they drew a maritime boundary, and in drawing the maritime boundary, Katchatheevu was put on the Sri Lankan side." Watch the video to know more.
