“Extended late-night parleys and heated debates marked the meeting of the 11-nation BRICS Deputy Foreign Ministers and Special Envoys in New Delhi that ended without a joint statement on Friday (April 24, 2026), The Hindu has learnt, indicating more trouble for India’s BRICS Presidency this year.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim is directly reported by a single web search result citing The Hindu regarding the meeting ending without a joint statement on April 24, 2026. While other evidence mentions BRICS meetings and dates (e.g., April 24, 2026, for MENA meeting), no other independent sources corroborate the specific details (11-nation, no joint statement, trouble for India's Presidency) reported by The Hindu.

“While delegates from the United Arab Emirates and Iran sparred over the war in West Asia, a number of diplomatic and official sources present or briefed about the discussions said that the meetings on April 23-24 also saw an unexpected attempt by India to “tone down” language on Israel and Palestine, which was opposed by almost all other members.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim details specific events—UAE/Iran sparring, and India attempting to soften language on Israel/Palestine—during the April 23-24 meetings. This specific narrative is only present in the web search result referencing 'The Hindu' (implied by the context of the evidence set, though the snippet is not fully provided for this claim). The other evidence provided relates to general BRICS membership or unrelated dates/topics, and does not corroborate the specific diplomatic maneuvering described.
