Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Address Namibia’s National Assembly on 9 July

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Address Namibia’s National Assembly on 9 July. The National Assembly of Namibia has officially confirmed an update to the programme for the upcoming state visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. As part of his visit, Prime Minister Modi will now deliver an address to the National Assembly instead of the initially planned Joint Sitting of Parliament.

The address is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, 9 July 2025, at 16:00, at the Parliament Building in Windhoek. The adjustment was announced by the National Assembly earlier this week.

This marks a key moment in Prime Minister Modi’s official visit to Namibia and is expected to further strengthen the diplomatic ties between the two countries. India and Namibia have shared long-standing relations spanning areas such as trade, education, health, and technology.

Parliamentary officials have indicated that all logistical and security arrangements are in place for the session. The address is anticipated to draw significant local and international attention, as it underscores growing diplomatic engagement between African nations and key global partners.

Members of the National Assembly, invited dignitaries, and members of the diplomatic corps are expected to attend. The session will also be broadcast live for public viewing.
