A great pleasure to join UAE DPM & FM Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan @ABZayed for the @raisinadialogue Middle East session on ‘The World Ahead: Power, Purpose & Possibility’ in Abu Dhabi.
In our conversation, underscored that:
✅ It is important to recognize the increasing pace of change in the global order. Reflects both long term trends and immediate shocks.
✅ Countries respond as per their specific situation. New partnerships and fresh options are inevitably explored in that pursuit.
✅ This involves going beyond traditional comfort zones and developing sharper strategic awareness.
✅ The reform of multilateralism is urgent. It can be supported through stronger minilateralism.
✅ The 🇮🇳 🇦🇪 partnership of the last decade is a great example of our two nations responding to the changing global environment.
The High Commission of India, Gaborone, bids a heartfelt and warm farewell to H.E. Shri Bharath Kumar Kuthati, High Commissioner of India to Botswana. His dedicated service, warm leadership and invaluable contributions to strengthening India-Botswana relations will be fondly remembered.

A joyous milestone for Project Cheetah and a special moment for India-Botswana ties!
The birth of five cheetah cubs at Kuno National Park, marking the beginning of the Botswanan lineage in India, is a proud testament to our shared commitment to wildlife conservation.
A beautiful symbol of the enduring friendship and growing partnership between India and Botswana—working together for wildlife, biodiversity and a sustainable future.

Another historic and joyous milestone for Project Cheetah! 🐆❤️
KJP21, a 32-month-old Indian-born female cheetah, has given birth to five healthy cubs in Kuno National Park today.
KJP21 is the third Indian-born female cheetah to give birth, after Mukhi and KGP12—an important milestone in the emergence of the next generation of India’s cheetah population.
With the arrival of these five cubs, the cheetah population in India has reached 60, including 41 Indian-born cheetahs.
Importantly, these cubs also mark the beginning of the Botswanan lineage in India, as their father is a Botswanan male cheetah—adding a new genetic lineage to India’s growing cheetah population.
Another generation born on Indian soil, adding yet another beautiful chapter to the remarkable story of cheetah reintroduction in India.
Heartfelt congratulations to the veterinarians, field staff, managers and everyone associated with Project Cheetah, whose dedication, commitment and tireless efforts have made these moments possible.
Welcome to the world, little ones 🐆
