PRIME Minister Narendra Modi's foreign visits between 2021 and July 2025 might have strengthened India's bilateral ties with the host nations, but they have also incurred a cost of nearly ₹300 crore to the exchequer.

- RAJESH KUMAR THAKUR @New Delhi

That includes ₹67 crore spent on his five foreign visits in February, March and April this year to the United States, France, Mauritius, Thailand, Sri Lanka and Saudi Arabia.

The Ministry of External Affairs, in a written reply to the questions of TMC Rajya Sabha MP Derek O'Brien, has shared the details of expenditures. The data reveal that Modi visited France and the United States between February 10 and 13, for which the expenses totalled ₹25,59,82,902 for the French visit and ₹16,54,84,302 for the US visit, respectively.
