India Sends Food Aid to Help Namibia Face Drought.
India sent 1,000 tonnes of rice and 1,000 tonnes of maize to help Namibia deal with its water crisis. India's new top officer in Namibia, Rahul Shrivastava, shared this news at an India Day event in Windhoek on Friday.
The two lands have grown closer through talks and joint work in the past year, Shrivastava said. He noted that India has helped Namibia since before it became free.
This year marks 75 years since India made its basic laws. "India kept its word to make life fair and free for all its people," Shrivastava said. The laws helped make India strong and united through talks with many groups.
Jenelly Matundu, who helps run Namibia's links with other lands, said Namibia sees India as a key friend. She praised India's help before and after Namibia became free. Both sides want to work more together, she added.
The two lands have met many times in past years, Matundu said. These meetings show their deep trust and support for each other.
This food aid comes at a time when Namibia needs help with its lack of rain. The gift shows how India keeps helping other lands in need, even as it grows strong.
