Munu Mahawar, the new High Commissioner of India to the Maldives has officially assumed office.

India’s President Ram Nath Kovind presented High Commissioner Mahawar with his Letter of Credence at the official Presidential Residence in India, Rashtrapati Bhavan.

In a Twitter post following the reception, the new High Commissioner of India to the Maldives revealed that it was a great honor and privilege to call on the president and receive his credentials.

A deeply grateful High Commissioner expressed gratitude to the president’s insights and guidance.
