I seize this opportunity to convey our solidarity to you, government and people of India in these trying times," Mauritian Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth.

PM Modi said, "First of all, I congratulate the Government and people of Mauritius for effective management of the #COVID19 global pandemic. I am happy that India was able to support this effort through timely supplies of medicines and sharing of experiences.

"Both India and Mauritius respect our independent judiciaries as important pillars of our democratic systems. This impressive new building, with its modern design and construction, is a mark of this respect.

"It was in Mauritius that I had first spoken about India's vision of 'SAGAR -- Security and Growth for All in the Region'. This is because Mauritius is at the heart of India's approach to the Indian Ocean region."
