#PMModiInLanka | Prime Minister Narendra Modi is in Sri Lanka for a three-day visit aimed at enhancing bilateral ties across key sectors like energy, trade, connectivity, digitalisation, and defense. During the visit, he was welcomed with a historic ceremonial guard of honour and conferred Sri Lanka's highest state honour, the Mithra Vibhushana. A significant outcome of the visit was the signing of 7 crucial MoUs, including the groundbreaking interconnection of the India and Sri Lanka power grids. The project, spanning 285 km and involving both land and submarine cables, is set to link the two countries' power systems, boosting energy cooperation and regional connectivity. The project will be developed in phases, with a transmission capacity of 500 MW in the first phase and 1,000 MW in the second phase. This ambitious project will integrate Sri Lanka into the South Asian power grid, further enhancing cooperation in the energy sector and solidifying India's role as a regional energy leader.
