India’s Big Action Against Maldives? Modi Govt Reduces Aid To Male Amid Diplomatic Row
Published on Feb 02, 2024 06:34 pm IST
The Indian government has announced a reduced aid for Maldives amid fraught relations. The Modi government has set aside ₹600 crore in foreign aid to Maldives, higher than the previous year’s allocation but 22 percent less than what New Delhi actually ended up spending on Male. The allocation is part of the developmental assistance for Maldives announced for the financial year 2024-25. The reduction in aid comes following derogatory remarks made by now suspended ministers in the Maldives President Mohamed Muizzu government.
