PM Modi Congratulates Ranil Wickremesinghe: Prime Minister Narendra Modi (PM Modi) congratulated the new President of Sri Lanka, Ranil Wickremesinghe. PM Modi has sent a congratulatory letter to Ranil Wickremesinghe on his election. PM Modi said that India will support the Sri Lankan people for stability and economic recovery through established democratic means. PM Modi also said that he looks forward to working closely with President Wickremesinghe to strengthen the age-old, close, and friendly ties between India and Sri Lanka.

Wickremesinghe declared a state of emergency on 17 July after Gotabaya Rajapaksa fled Sri Lanka. The first session of the Sri Lankan Parliament after the appointment of new President Ranil Wickremesinghe has been called on Wednesday. During this, the new president can approve the emergency imposed a week ago to end social unrest.
