Maldives President visits Taj Mahal, says words can’t do justice to its beauty

Maldives President Mohamed Muizzu, who is in India on a four-day bilateral visit, went to see the Taj Mahal with First Lady Sajidha Mohamed.
“It is tough to describe this mausoleum’s beauty as words simply cannot do it justice. This mesmerising intricacy and attention to detail is a testament to love and architectural excellence,” Muizzu wrote in the visitors’ book.
Muizzu and First Lady Sajidha Mohamed were welcomed to Uttar Pradesh by Cabinet minister Yogendra Upadhyay on behalf of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath at the airport.
Upadhyay also presented them a replica of Taj Mahal and the Madlives’ first couple posed for photographs with the 17th-century monument on the backdrop.
Due to Muizzu’s visit, the Taj Mahal remained closed to the public from 8 am to 10 am.
Muizzu also visited Shilpgram, an open-air crafts village, where he was greeted by a performance by artistes from the Braj region before leaving for the airport.
On Monday, Muizzu held bilateral talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the two sides signed a number of documents, including a currency swap agreement, launch of Rupay card in the Maldives, and inauguration of a new runway at the Hanimadhoo International Airport.
