The period also signifies the 50 years of diplomatic relations between the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and Republic of Mauritius. Due to significance of the historic occasion, Commander Pakistan Fleet, Rear Admiral Muhammad Amjad Khan Niazi also joined Pakistan Navy Task Group at Mauritius.
During the visit, Commander Pakistan Fleet along with Mission Commander Cdre Javaid Iqbal and Commanding Officers of PN Ships held important meetings with political and military leadership of Mauritius and discussed matters of mutual interest and avenues for enhanced co-operation. These included call on with H E Ameenah Gurib Fakim, President of Republic of Mauritius, H E Pravind Kumar Jugnauth, Prime Minister of Republic of Mauritius, H E Fazila Dawreeawoo, Vice Prime Minister of Republic of Mauritius, Roubina Jado-Jaunbocus, Minister of Gender Equality, Child Development & Family Welfare, Karl Mario Nobin, Police Commissioner of Mauritius and Daniel Eric Clive Laurent, Lord Mayor of Port Louis.
Taking the opportunity, officers and men of PN Ships visited Mauritius Coast Guard Training Centre while Officers and men of Mauritius Coast Guard visited PN Ships to attend Maritime Interdiction Operations & Counter Piracy workshop. A reception dinner was hosted onboard PNS NASR to mark the 50th years of standing diplomatic relations between both the countries, which were established soon after gaining of independence by Democratic Republic of Mauritius.

Pakistan and Mauritius enjoy cordial relations founded on the common principles of brotherhood, friendship and sovereign equality. Being littoral states of Indian Ocean Region, both countries share common maritime challenges. As an extension of Government's foreign policy, Pakistan Navy continues proactive endeavors to enhance maritime collaboration with the Indian Ocean littoral states and this visit was also a step in this direction. The visit of Pakistan Navy's Senior Flag Officer and Ships will certainly strengthen the existing bonds of friendship between the two countries.-PR
