Jaishankar to Visit Sri Lanka on October 4

Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar will visit Sri Lanka on October 4, marking the first high-level engagement since Anura Kumara Dissanayake assumed the presidency. This visit aims to reaffirm India's commitment to development support amid concerns about Sri Lanka's potential foreign policy shift under the Marxist president. Meanwhile, Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness is on a historic four-day visit to India to strengthen bilateral ties. Holness will engage in high-level talks with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other dignitaries, with expectations of signing multiple MoUs to bolster economic cooperation. Both visits highlight efforts to enhance diplomatic relationships and promote mutual interests in the region.
