Agra: Maldives President Mohamed Muizzu accompanied by wife First Lady Sajidha Mohamed paid a visit to Taj Mahal in Uttar Pradesh’s Agra on Tuesday.
President Muizzu, who is on a five day State visit to India arrived in Agra earlier this morning.
“President His Excellency Dr @MMuizzu and First Lady Madam Sajidha Mohamed arrived in Agra, where they will tour the historic Taj Mahal as part of the President’s State Visit to India,” the President’s office of Maldives wrote on X.
Taj Mahal stands majestically on the banks of River Yamuna, and is an architectural marvel. In 1983, the Taj Mahal became a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Yesterday, the Maldivian President held meetings with President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other senior officials.
Muizzu is on an inuagural bilateral visit to India from October 6-10.
He is in the country on an official invitation by President Droupadi Murmu. Upon his arrival in the country on Sunday, Muizzu was welcomed by Union Minister of State for External Affairs, Kiriti Vardhan Singh. This will notably be the second time that Muizzu is visiting India this year after attending the swearing-in ceremony of Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this June.
Notably, according to earlier convention, almost every Maldivian President used to make his first foreign visit to India, but Muizzu changed the trend by first visiting Turkiye and then China, after assuming office. Since coming to power, Muizzu government took several steps that have been unconventional from the point of view of India-Maldives ties.
