In the presence of PM Modi and Maldivian President Mohamed Muizzu, both sides reaffirmed their commitment to a stronger economic and maritime partnership. India agreed to ease Maldives’ loan repayment burden by 40%, and push digital ties through UPI, RuPay and local currency trade.
PM Modi also handed over 3,300 social housing units, vehicles for security forces, and medical aid kits. He and President Muizzu jointly inaugurated infrastructure projects and pledged cooperation on climate, disaster risk, and renewable energy.
The visit also marked 60 years of Maldives’ independence and India-Maldives diplomatic ties. PM Modi called the agreements a reflection of India’s “Neighbourhood First” approach and long-standing friendship with the island nation.
