NEW DELHI: Foreign minister S Jaishankar landed in Mauritius on Sunday on a two-day visit to advance a trade and investment agreement with the island nation, one of India’s key partners in the Indian Ocean region. He, however, arrived in the middle of civil unrest, with opposition parties and civil society groups calling for the resignation of PM Pravind Jugnauth and his government.
Foreign minister of Mauritius Nandcoomar Bodha resigned and has positioned himself as a challenger to Jugnauth. In an exclusive conversation with TOI, Bodha dwelt on the causes of the unrest and the future of India-Mauritius ties.
