Gov’t restored harmony by eliminating discrimination: President

President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih has stated that his administration restored peace, harmony, and stability by eliminating discrimination based on political leanings upheld by previous governments. He made the remark while giving his Presidential Address at the Parliament of the Maldives.

In his address, President Solih said that he has made every effort to ensure such discrimination has no place in the country and that the administration will maintain societal stability, harmony, and peace through its ability to listen, consult, and compromise while steadfastly holding to its fundamental beliefs and values. He added that the administration's most pressing obligation in the future would be to preserve the peace, stability, and harmony maintained over the past four years.

Additionally, President Solih assured the public that every citizen before the state would be equal and that each citizen deserved the same rights, privileges, and protections in the eyes of the state. He said that the unprecedented peace and stability his administration had achieved and maintained was due to its adherence to nationalistic and Islamic fundamental values, and that the people now believe that the government, formed by the people, remains steadfast in its commitment to serve them.

Furthermore, President Solih said that the administration promised to deliver sweeping reforms, explaining that the motivation for these changes was to transform, improve, and alleviate the livelihoods of its people, bringing prosperity to all citizens without discrimination. He also emphasised investing in future generations to ensure the nation's continued success.
