Significantly, in November last year, Sri Lankan President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa took office. During that time the Foreign Minister met him.

According to the media report, India was upset with Sri Lanka moving closer to China, so the Foreign Minister traveled to Colombo to correct the relationship between the two countries.

At the same time, Sri Lankan President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa visited the Indian capital New Delhi as his first foreign tour. During this time the relationship between the two countries was strengthened.

Meanwhile, in September, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also participated in a virtual bilateral summit with Sri Lankan Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa.
