MUSCAT: India’s relationship with Oman is based on mutual trust and those trying to create differences between both the two countries will never succeed, His Excellency Munu Mahawar, Indian Ambassador said on Friday.

Speaking exclusively to The Arabian Stories, the Ambassador urged Indians living in Oman not to get distracted by fake news on social media. “India and Oman share a very special relationship based on mutual understanding and trust,” he said.

Mahawar’s statement comes a day after a fake message that was posted through an impersonated Twitter account attributed to Her Highness Sayyida Mona bint Fahd Al Said, went viral among the Indian community in the country.  

Those trying to create differences between us should realise the absolute futility of their efforts. They will never succeed

Her Highness Sayyida Mona had later issued a statement confirming that the Twitter account is fake and has no connection to her.  

Mahawar while thanking Her Highness for the clarification told TAS that people who are trying to create differences between Oman and India will never succeed. “Those trying to create differences between us should realise the absolute futility of their efforts. They will never succeed,” Mahawar said.

“India values its friendly relations with Oman and will continue working closely with the Government and people of Oman to further strengthen our special relationship,” he added.
