PM  Modi to visit Namibia;  seeks to deepen economic ties in the diamond sector

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is slated to visit Namibia on July 9, part of a five-nation tour that also includes Ghana, Argentina, Brazil, and Trinidad and Tobago. The trip marks Modi’s first official visit to the Southern African nation and underscores New Delhi’s ambition to deepen economic ties in the diamond sector.

While Indian firms such as Ankit Gems and KGK already run cutting and polishing units in Namibia’s capital, Windhoek, rough stones currently reach India indirectly via other global trading hubs. Modi’s visit is expected to pave the way for more direct diamond shipments, streamlining trade flows between the two countries.

Namibia ranks as the world’s fifth-largest diamond producer by value and volume, according to Kimberley Process data, and is especially known for its rich marine diamond reserves, estimated at over 80 million carats.

The agenda extends beyond gemstones. Modi is also set to discuss cooperation on critical minerals and uranium—resources vital to India’s clean energy ambitions and energy security. During the visit, he is scheduled to address the Namibian Parliament, signaling the strategic importance New Delhi places on closer engagement with Africa’s resource-rich economies.

Insiders suggest a star-studded journey to London might be on the cards. But why London? Beyond its glittering reputation as a global hub for jewellery and fashion, whispers point to something far more dazzling — De Beers is set to host a major showcase in the city.

This year, De Beers Group makes its grand debut at Frieze London, marking a landmark moment where the world of natural diamonds meets the world of art. In collaboration with Frieze Masters, the brand will unveil Voyage Through the Diamond Realm — an immersive experience said to capture the mystery, beauty, and brilliance of natural diamonds like never before.

To bring this vision to life, De Beers has invited India’s leading style and art connoisseurs, including Twinkle Khanna, Ananya Panday, Sara Tendulkar, Karan Johar and many more. Known for their refined taste and appreciation of art and design, these tastemakers are the perfect ambassadors to experience natural diamonds in a whole new light — where every facet tells a story of time, pressure, and perfection.

While details remain under wraps, those close to the brand hint that the experience will be nothing short of transformative — a moment where science, storytelling, and rarity converge to celebrate nature’s most extraordinary creations.

One thing’s certain: when De Beers Group meets Frieze London, the city is bound to shine a little brighter — and perhaps, so will those boarding that flight.
