The US Embassy in India on Saturday announced a temporary reduction in its social media activity due to the ongoing partial government shutdown in the United States, stating that its official X account "will not be updated regularly" until full operations resume.
The partial federal government shutdown came hours after the Senate met a last-minute deadline to approve a revised package of government-funding bills. But as per ABC News, the House is not expected to approve the changes until Monday at the earliest.
The US Senate passed a package of six government funding bills worth USD 460 billion, Friday evening (local time), averting the shutdown just hours ahead of the deadline, CNN reported.
Washington D.C. [USA], Jan 25 (ANI): There seems to be no end in sight for the partial government shutdown in the US, with the Senate failing to pass two funding bills which would have reopened the government.
