The Centre on Wednesday informed the Delhi High Court that it has given clearance to city Education Minister Atishi to travel to the United Kingdom for an official visit next week.
The counsel for the Centre said the proposal has now been sent to the economic affairs department for further approvals, which would also be processed and the petitioner can apply for requisite visa permits.
While Ms. Atishi's lawyer said the clearance was given by the Ministry of External Affairs on June 7 morning, the counsel for the Centre said it was granted on June 6 itself.
