New Delhi, 5th March, 2015: Israeli diplomats posted in India voted today for the Knesset, the Israeli Parliament, ahead of the general elections, set to take place in Israel on 17th March, 2015. Israeli diplomats and their family members, posted in the Embassy of Israel in New Delhi and in the Israeli Consulates in Mumbai and in Bangalore, took part in early polls today.
