India Tuesday said that a decision on the US request to send its troops to Iraq would be taken after considering "all aspects."
"No decision has been taken on sending Indian troops to Iraq. It would be taken after considering all aspects," External Affairs Minister Yashwant Sinha in New Delhi told a meeting of the Parliamentary Consultative Committee attached to his ministry.
Sinha was responding to questions from Members of Parliament on Washington's request to dispatch a division strength of about 16,000 to 18,000 troops to the war-ravaged country.
