President Mohamed Muizzu of the Maldives has accepted an invitation to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In an attempt to strengthen the bilateral ties between India and the Maldives, President Muizzu is reported to attend Narendra Modi’s outh taking ceremany which is set to take place on June 9 over the weekend. The event, set to take place in New Delhi, will witness President Muizzu among the dignitaries celebrating Modi’s commencement of his third consecutive term in office.
According to a report from Maldivian news portal Edition.mv, President Muizzu’s participation was confirmed through Mihaaru News, its sister publication in Dhivehi.

This visit signifies a hopeful progression in the diplomatic relations between India and the Maldives, as both nations seek to enhance cooperation in various sectors.
