Prime Minister Narendra Modi has successfully concluded his five-nation tour to Ghana, Trinidad & Tobago, Argentina, Brazil, and Namibia. The final leg of his diplomatic journey in Namibia proved to be a landmark moment in India-Africa relations, setting the tone for a new era of strategic cooperation between the two nations.

During his visit to Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, Prime Minister Modi and Namibian President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah held delegation-level talks that focused on strengthening bilateral relations across multiple sectors. In a major development, India and Namibia signed two Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) in the presence of the Prime Minister—one for the establishment of an Entrepreneurship Development Centre in Namibia, and the other for cooperation in health and medicine.

Secretary (Eastern Region) in the Ministry of External Affairs, Dammu Ravi, highlighted that discussions covered a wide array of topics including critical minerals, hydrocarbons, defence ties, digital public infrastructure, environmental cooperation, and capacity building. A notable highlight was the announcement of a digital payment system based on India’s UPI platform, to be launched in Namibia later this year. Namibia has become the first country globally where the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has signed a technology agreement with a central bank for such an initiative.

Additionally, Namibia formally joined two major Indian-led global initiatives—the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI) and the Global Biofuel Alliance, reaffirming shared commitments to sustainability and climate resilience.

Prime Minister Modi’s arrival in Namibia was met with a ceremonial welcome and a guard of honour. He received a warm reception from the Indian diaspora, whose contributions to preserving Indian culture abroad were acknowledged with gratitude. In a moment of profound symbolism, the Prime Minister paid tribute to Namibia’s founding father, Sam Nujoma, at the National Heroes’ Acre in Windhoek.

In recognition of his efforts to deepen bilateral ties and foster South-South cooperation, Prime Minister Modi was conferred with Namibia’s highest civilian honour, marking a moment of pride for India on the global stage.

This visit marked the first by an Indian Prime Minister to Namibia in nearly three decades and is seen as a pivotal step in India’s engagement with Africa under its Global South policy. The focus on healthcare, education, technology, and economic development reaffirmed India’s commitment to being a trusted development partner in the region.

The tour has not only reinforced India’s diplomatic and developmental outreach but also significantly elevated India’s soft power presence across the Global South, particularly in Africa.
