PM Narendra Modi with President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi
Egypt President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi bestowed the ‘Order of the Nile’ on Prime Minister Narendra Modi today.
PM Modi visited Egypt’s iconic 11th-century al-Hakim Mosque and the Heliopolis Commonwealth War Cemetery in Cairo earlier today.
PM Modi also met with Egypt’s President, who had invited him to visit the country. This is the first bilateral visit to Egypt by an Indian Prime Minister in 26 years.
El-Sisi will also visit India in September for the G-20 Summit, to which Egypt has been invited as a special guest.
The Prime Minister was spotted admiring the beautifully carved inscriptions on the walls and doorways of the Imam al-Hakim bi Amr Allah Mosque, a nearly 1,000-year-old edifice in the heart of Cairo.
The mosque, which is 13,560 square metres in size, was restored with the assistance of India’s Dawoodi Bohra community. The Fatimids founded the community. They began renovating the mosque in 1970 and have been preserving it ever since.
