Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh held talks with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in London on Wednesday, the first visit by an Indian defense minister in 20 years. Singh discussed with Sunak boosting defence and economic cooperation between their nations to uphold a peaceful rules-based global order. The minister called for the UK and other like-minded countries to collaborate with rising India toward this goal. The rare meeting signals growing defence ties as India and Britain explore closer military interoperability through joint exercises, defense technology transfers and co-development. It follows a productive India-UK defence industry roundtable on expanding strategic ties.
