“Steady Hands Across the Horizon”

June 5 witnessed a meeting not of mere formality, but of steady hands reaching across the horizon of shared interests.

At the Defence Headquarters Complex in Sri Jayawardanapura, Air Vice Marshal Sampath Thuyacontha (Retd) and India’s Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh held a dialogue marked by calm determination—a dialogue about shared seas, collaborative training, and enduring regional harmony.

In a moment reflecting the day’s tone, Mr. Singh’s meeting with Deputy Minister Major General Aruna Jayasekara (Retd) quietly underscored the ongoing journey of partnership between the two nations.
