Warm India–Jordan ties on display as Crown Prince drives PM Modi
Jordanian Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II on Tuesday personally drove Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the Jordan Museum in Amman, a special gesture highlighting the warmth and depth of ties between India and the Arab nation.
The Crown Prince, a 42nd-generation direct descendant of Prophet Mohammad, accompanied the Prime Minister during the visit, underscoring the personal rapport and diplomatic goodwill between the two countries.
PM Modi arrived in Jordan’s capital Amman on Monday on a two-day official visit at the invitation of King Abdullah II. Jordan marks the first leg of the Prime Minister’s four-day, three-nation tour, which will also include visits to Ethiopia and Oman.
Located in the Ras al-Ein district of Amman, the Jordan Museum is the country’s largest museum and houses some of its most important archaeological and historical artefacts. Established in 2014, the museum chronicles the region’s civilisational journey from prehistoric times to the modern era.
Among its most notable exhibits are animal bones dating back nearly 1.5 million years and the 9,000-year-old Ain Ghazal lime plaster statues, considered among the oldest human statues in the world.
