Maldives has been humiliated after the withdrawal of 76 Indian soldiers on the orders of President Mohammed Muizzo. Days after the withdrawal of Indian troops, Defense Minister Isan Maumun has said that the country's army does not have pilots capable of operating the planes donated by India. What is coming to light at present is that the Maldives National Defense Force (MNDF) does not have pilots capable of flying the two helicopters and one Dornier aircraft received from India. A day before this, Maldives Foreign Minister Musa Zameer had said that 76 Indian military personnel in the country have been replaced by civilian personnel sent by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited.
Pilots are not capable of flying planes
Isan said that the Maldivian Army does not have any pilots capable of flying these aircraft. He said that during the previous governments, some soldiers had started training to fly Dornier and two helicopters. For this, pilots have to go through many stages, but our soldiers are not able to complete it due to some reasons. Due to which our pilots could not get the license to fly it.
Muijju's party's lie caught
At the same time, when Mohammed Muizzu's party was in the opposition, he had claimed that the Maldives National Defense Force (MNDF) had pilots capable of flying these planes. However, now their lies have been exposed by this statement of their Defense Minister. Military helicopters and Dornier aircraft donated by India are operated primarily for medical purposes.
When did India give the plane?
It is noteworthy that during the government of former President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, helicopters and Dornier aircraft were donated to Maldives from India during the government of former President Mohammed Nasheed and Abdulla Yameen. The main reason for Indian soldiers to come to Maldives was to train the army here.
Relations between the two countries are tense
The Maldives government led by Mohammed Muizzu formally requested India to withdraw its troops. The withdrawal of Indian troops from Maldives was also a major election campaign plank of Muizzu's party. Relations between the two countries have been tense since Mohammed Muizzu took power.
