Modi, Muizzu Discuss Cooperation to Strengthen India-Maldives Ties
India's Prime Minister Modi visited the Maldives for talks with President Muizzu to improve their countries' relationship.
They talked about working together on things like trade, defense, and building projects.
The visit is a big deal because the relationship between the two countries had become tense.
This happened after a campaign called "India Out" when the new president came to power.
The situation caused some disagreements including the demand to remove Indian military personnel.
But, they are now working together again to help the countries.
Officials believe the focus is to bring back a positive relationship.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Maldivian President Mohamed Muizzu held talks to boost ties.
The talks focused on cooperation in trade, defense, and infrastructure.
Modi's visit marks a turnaround in relations after a period of strain.
Muizzu came to power in 2023 amid an "India Out" campaign.
Discussions included the withdrawal of Indian military personnel and subsequent replacement with civilians.
