The MEA spokesperson, in his response to the query during a weekly media briefing here, said, travel advisories are “periodically issued” by countries based on their “assessment of various factors”.
“We have noted that the United States has also updated the travel advisory for India. This happened, I think, on the 16th of June,” Jaiswal said, adding thereafter New Delhi has been informed by the US authorities that there has been no change in the advisory level for India, which “remains at level 2, same as before”.
“And the US’ travel advisory level for India has been at level 2 for several years,” he added.
The travel advisory for India also says that the US government has limited ability to provide emergency services to its citizens in rural areas, which stretch from eastern Maharashtra and northern Telangana through western West Bengal.
