PM Modi in Sri Lanka LIVE: India's PM Modi Receives Ceremonial Welcome in Colombo, Sri Lanka | N18G

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi receives an official welcome ceremony with a guard of honour from Sri Lanka's President Anura Kumara Dissanayake at Independence Square in the capital Colombo. Both countries are expected to sign key deals in defence, energy, digital infrastructure, health and trade sectors amid concerns over China's expanding its influence across the Indian Ocean region. This is PM Modi's first visit since Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake took charge last year - and the first by any foreign leader since Dissanayake began his term in 2024. It also comes after Dissanayake's visit to India in December - his first state visit since assuming office.
