President Muizzu's overwhelming majority allows leverage for anti-India policies, sparking concerns in New Delhi.

The decision comes amid assertions from New Delhi that it remains an important development partner for the island nation.

The decision was announced after the second core group meeting held between the two nations, lasting over two weeks and concluding yesterday in New Delhi.

Amidst the chaos, a physical altercation broke out between Kanditheemu MP Abdulla Shaheem Abdul Hakeem Shaheem and Kendhikulhudhoo MP Ahmed Easa.
