The WHO Chief is to be apprised of India's sense of anxiety during her three-day visit to the counry starting tomorrow. She is coming here in connection with the meeting of the Health Ministers of the South East Asian region, which began here on Thursday and the WHO's South East Asia regional committee meeting, which is also being held here from September 7 to 11.
