Hello everyone and welcome to this episode of The Handshake, my name is Amal Chowdhury and today we will be talking about how the demise of Oman's Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said might affect India's dynamics in the Gulf region. The Ministry of Home Affairs has said that India will observe state mourning on January 13 as a mark of respect to His Majesty Sultan bin Said Al Said. The spokesperson for MHA said that the Indian flag will be flown at half-mast throughout the day and there would be no official entertainment that day.
