Swaraj had met the relatives of some of the victims of the terror attack earlier. The bomber had targeted a minority communities delegation as it was traveling to the governor's residence in the eastern city of Jalalabad for a meeting with President Ashraf Ghani. Avtar Singh Khalsa, a longtime leader of the Sikh community, was among those killed. Another 20 people were wounded. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the suicide bombing.
