Foreign dignitaries arrived in New Delhi to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Narendra Modi for a third term as the Prime Minister of India.

"President @MMuizzu of Maldives arrives to a warm welcome in New Delhi to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Prime Minister and Council of Ministers," External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said on 'X'.
Muizzu's invitation assumes significance as it came amid frosty ties between India and Maldives after Muizzu, known for his pro-China leanings, demanded the withdrawal of Indian military personnel from his country.
