Pabitra Margherita visited Lozitha Palace and met King Mswati III during his diplomatic mission to Eswatini. Foreign Minister Pholile Shakantu welcomed the Indian Minister of State for External Affairs upon his arrival at Mbabane airport. The African kingdom serves as one stop on Margherita's broader continental tour aimed at strengthening diplomatic ties. Official discussions will address trade opportunities, investment partnerships, and development cooperation between the two nations. The minister plans to engage with local Indian communities and participate in bilateral partnership events.

Margherita will conduct formal meetings with Eswatini's Prime Minister and Foreign Minister to review existing diplomatic relationships. Areas of focus encompass capacity-building programs, commercial exchanges, and cultural connections between both countries. The Ministry of External Affairs expects this diplomatic engagement to deepen longstanding friendship bonds. His African tour continues with scheduled visits to Lesotho from July 18-22 and South Africa from July 23-25. The South African portion will involve participation at G20 Development Ministerial Meetings, representing Indian interests.
