Sri Lanka's Finance Minister Basil Rajapaksa will visit India in a fortnight to formalise India's economic relief package for the island nation facing a serious forex crisis, Foreign Minister G L Peiris said on Tuesday.
In January, India announced a USD 900 million loans to Sri Lanka to build up its depleted foreign reserves and for food imports, amid a shortage of almost all essential commodities in the country.
