Doval champions regional security at NSA-level meet of Colombo Security Conclave

National Security Adviser Ajit Doval emphasized the CSC's pivotal role in ensuring regional security and stability. Highlighting the significance of sustained engagement across the diverse pillars of cooperation, Doval stressed the importance of collective efforts in addressing traditional, non-traditional, and emerging hybrid challenges in the Indian Ocean Region.

During his visit to Mauritius, NSA Doval also paid a courtesy call on Mauritius Prime Minister Pravind Kumar Jugnauth.

The Colombo Security Conclave, established in 2020 through the collaboration of India, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives, expanded its reach and influence when Mauritius joined during the 5th NSA-level meeting in March 2022, held in Male, Maldives. The CSC, focusing on maritime safety and security, countering terrorism, combating transnational crime, cyber security, and humanitarian assistance, has since evolved into a pivotal alliance.
