Prime Minister Narendra Modi begins his state visit to the Maldives this Friday following an invitation from President Mohamed Muizzu. The timing aligns with the Maldives celebrating six decades of independence and marking 60 years of diplomatic ties between both nations. Indian residents across the island nation have demonstrated enthusiasm about Modi's arrival. Community members praised the improved perception of India within Maldivian society compared to previous years.

Modi will serve as Guest of Honour during the Maldives' Independence Day festivities. The diplomatic mission reinforces India's Neighbourhood First policy while strengthening bilateral relationships. Before departing for the Maldives, Modi completed his United Kingdom tour where he finalized the India-UK Free Trade Agreement. Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal confirmed the transition from the UK leg to the Maldivian portion of Modi's international engagement. The visit represents continued efforts to enhance regional partnerships and economic cooperation.
