Apart from that, Jaishankar said at a joint press conference with Maldivian Foreign Minister Abdulla Shahid on Saturday that the NCPLE will assist the Maldivian Police Service in training officers and improving their crime-fighting abilities. In a separate tweet, he stated that the Bhoomi Pujan of the Addu Road Project emphasises our development partnership. A deal for the improvement of Addu and the protection of the coast was also signed. The Maldives’ security will be strengthened by the transfer of the Coastal Radar System.

The opening of the ‘Drug Detoxification and Rehabilitation Center’ will strengthen the relationship even more.

The inauguration of the ‘Drug Detoxification and Rehabilitation Centre,’ according to External Affairs Minister Jaishankar, reflects our people-to-people contact. Our shared environmental commitment is demonstrated by the new eco-tourism sector. It’s a good day for India-Maldives development cooperation.
