Sectarian violence which started in the state on May 3 has left at least 175 people dead, more than 1,100 injured and thousands displaced. Police said 32 people are still missing.
State chief minister N Biren Singh is not part of the visiting delegation, which has drawn caustic remarks from the Opposition Congress.
