Earlier in August, Union Minister of State for External Affairs Pabitra Margherita attended the celebration marking the diamond jubilee of Guyana's independence and six decades of bilateral diplomatic ties.
"Honoured to join the celebration for the 60th anniversary of Guyana's independence and 60 years of India-Guyana diplomatic relations.

He noted that bilateral cooperation, grounded in a common history and shared democratic principles, continues to broaden across the energy sector, healthcare, digital innovation, capacity building and sustainable development.
"We look forward to strengthening India-Guyana ties for the benefit of our peoples," he stated.
Meanwhile, in June, President Irfaan Ali conveyed his felicitations to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on achieving the milestone of becoming the longest-serving head of government in Indian history, noting that under his stewardship, the nation's international standing had risen alongside domestic progress.
In a post on X, Irfaan Ali stated, "I extend warmest congratulations to Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on becoming the longest-serving head of government in the history of the Republic of India. Longevity in office is but one measure of political endurance, but the deeper respect is carved by one's impact. Under Prime Minister Modi's leadership, India has strengthened its global voice and advanced bold developmental strides at home. Those are commendable achievements."
In acknowledgement, PM Modi expressed gratitude for the warm greetings and emphasised his commitment to sustaining collaborative efforts between the two countries for mutual welfare. (ANI)
