On Tuesday, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal welcomed the Singaporean delegation, noting that the ISMR continues to deepen the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.

India and Singapore elevated their relationship to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. This happened during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Singapore in September 2024.
The partnership is rooted in a shared history, mutual respect, and extensive cooperation across multiple sectors.
Envisioned by Prime Minister Modi, the ISMR serves as a platform to set the future agenda for India–Singapore cooperation. The inaugural ISMR took place in New Delhi in September 2022. The second meeting was held in Singapore in August 2024.
