Business Standard
|December 23, 2025
Last week, Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi returned from a four-day, three-nation foreign visit, the highlight of which was the signing of the India-Oman Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (Cepa).
With his return from Jordan, Ethiopia, and Oman on December 18, the PM had undertaken 11 foreign tours, visited 23 countries and spent 42 days abroad in 2025, according to an analysis of data available on the Ministry of External Affairs and Prime Minister's Office websites. This is the highest number of nations Modi has visited in a single year since 2015, his first full calendar year as PM, and the most vigorous year of his foreign travel to date. In 2015, he made 13 foreign tours, visited 28 countries, including Russia and France twice, and spent 54 days.
