At Rashtrapati Bhavan, Sultan Haitham Bin Tarik of Oman receives royal welcome

The forecourt of Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi hosted a traditional greeting for President Haitham bin Tarik of Oman on Saturday, the second day of his official visit to India. The Sultan was received at Rashtrapati Bhawan by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Droupadi Murmu.

Sultan Haitham bin Tarik then examined a Guard of Honour composed of the various defence services. The Sultan was received by Union Minister of State (MoS) for External Affairs, V Muraleedharan, as he arrived at the Delhi airport on Friday for a three-day State visit.

Earlier, the official spokesperson for the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Arindam Bagchi, said the visit by the Sultan of Oman will further boost the friendship and cooperation between the two nations.

“His Majesty Sultan Haitham Bin Tarik of Oman arrives to a warm welcome in New Delhi on his first State Visit to India. Received by @MOS_MEA at the airport. The visit will further reinforce the longstanding friendship and cooperation between India & Oman and strengthen bilateral ties,” Bagchi posted from his official handle on X.

The Sultan of Oman’s first State visit represents a major turning point in the diplomatic ties between Muscat and New Delhi, according to the MEA.

President Murmu invited the Sultan to come to India. On Friday, he will meet with PM Modi at Hyderabad House after touring the National Gallery of Modern Art in the nation’s capital.

PM Modi will also be hosting a luncheon in honour of the Sultan during his visit. The visit will provide a chance to investigate potential future cooperation between Oman and India for the advancement, prosperity, and stability of the region, according to a statement from the MEA.

Notably, India and Oman have a long-standing friendship that is based on shared cultural, historical, and economic bonds. Moreover, there has been direct human contact between Oman and India for five thousand years.
