Crown Prince Al Hussein drove PM Modi to the Jordan Museum during his Amman visit.

Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II personally drove Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the Jordan Museum during his official visit to Amman on Tuesday, a gesture highlighting the warmth of bilateral ties. The museum visit formed part of PM Modi’s busy schedule in the Jordanian capital. The Prime Minister was scheduled to address the India-Jordan Business Forum, which brought together leading business leaders from both countries to discuss ways to strengthen economic cooperation. MEA Secretary (South) Dr Neena Malhotra confirmed that PM Modi, accompanied by the Crown Prince, would visit the Jordan Museum later in the day.
Several agreements and memorandums of understanding were finalised during the visit, covering areas such as new and renewable energy, digital technology, water management, culture, and people-to-people exchanges. PM Modi later described the outcomes as a significant step forward in deepening India-Jordan relations, noting that cooperation in renewable energy reflected a shared commitment to clean growth, energy security, and climate responsibility.
The Ministry of External Affairs also outlined key outcomes, including MoUs on renewable energy and water resource management, a twinning agreement between Petra and Ellora, renewal of the cultural exchange programme for 2025–29, and a letter of intent on sharing large-scale digital solutions.
Upon arrival in Amman, PM Modi was received by Jordanian Prime Minister Jafar Hassan and given a formal welcome. He later met King Abdullah II at Al Husseiniya Palace, where both leaders held wide-ranging discussions on bilateral, regional, and global issues. After Jordan, PM Modi is set to visit Ethiopia, followed by the final leg of his tour in Oman.
