India and Malaysia to Strengthen Ties as PM Ibrahim Visits Delhi

On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi formally welcomed Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim of Malaysia at Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi. Ibrahim is on his first state visit to India, and this reception is the first stop on his journey as prime minister of Malaysia. 

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) highlighted the visit’s significance by publishing images of the leaders’ meeting on X. Malaysia plays a pivotal role in India’s Act East Policy.

Union Minister of State V. Somanna was there to receive Ibrahim upon his arrival in Delhi on Monday. After he met with Prime Minister Modi, Ibrahim visited Rajghat to lay a wreath and sign the visitor’s book in honour of Mahatma Gandhi.

Prime Minister Ibrahim met with President Droupadi Murmu and Minister S. Jaishankar during his visit. Following its 2015 elevation to the status of an Enhanced Strategic Partnership, the bilateral relationship between India and Malaysia is the intended target of the visit. As both nations approach the second decade of this collaboration, an all-encompassing cooperation program for the future, strengthening their historic and socio-cultural links, is likely to be outlined during the visit.
