Foreign Minister of the Maldives Abdulla Shahid will arrive here on Saturday on a four-day visit, with an aim to repair the bilateral ties which came under severe strain during the previous Government in the island nation.
Officials said External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will hold extensive talks with Shahid on Monday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had attended the swearing-in ceremony of Maldivian President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih on November 17 in Male.
During their meeting, Modi and Solih vowed to renew close ties and friendship between the two countries and agreed on the importance of maintaining peace and security in the Indian Ocean region.
Solih, as the opposition Maldivian Democratic Party's candidate, had surprisingly defeated strongman Abdulla Yameen in the presidential election held on September 23.
