New Delhi, Jan. 19 -- Prime Minister Narendra Modi received Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates, at Delhi airport on Monday, marking the start of his official visit to India.

This is Sheikh Mohamed's third official visit to India since assuming office as President of the UAE, and his fifth visit to the country over the past decade.

The visit builds on the strong momentum from recent high-level exchanges between the two nations, including the visit of Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, in September 2024, and Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defence, and Crown Prince of Dubai, in April 2025.
