Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Mauritian counterpart Pravind Kumar Jugnauth on Thursday jointly inaugurated a major Social Housing Project in the island nation. In the virtual ceremony, both leaders also laid the foundation stone for two other projects including the construction of a college for training of civil servants and a solar power project.
The Civil Service College project, located in Reduit, is funded through a grant support of $4.74 million under a bilateral MoU signed in 2017.
“Once constructed, this will provide a fully equipped and functional facility for the civil servants of Mauritius to undertake various training and skill development programmes. It will further strengthen institutional linkages with India,” a press release from the Government said.
