Senior BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi expressed deep condolences over the death of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Monday, calling for peace in the tumultuous region of West Asia.

During his visit to the Iranian Embassy in India, Naqvi met with Ambassador Mohammad Fathali, offering heartfelt sympathies. He reiterated that war only exacerbates problems and advocated for peace as essential for humanity's safety.
