Former President Ranil Wickremesinghe is set to depart for New Delhi today (27) to deliver a keynote address on global issues.
The speech will take place at the Bharat Mandapam on Friday (28), with diplomats and distinguished guests in attendance. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, and former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott are also slated to speak at the event.
Wickremesinghe’s address will focus on South Asia’s geopolitical landscape, economic challenges, and regional cooperation.
In addition to his speech, he is expected to meet Prime Minister Modi for discussions on key bilateral and regional matters. Political sources indicate he will also engage with prominent Indian business leaders during his visit.
This marks his third visit to India in recent months. Wickremesinghe is scheduled to return to Sri Lanka on 2 March.
