This project will build on the already close bilateral cooperation in the health sector and include a robust component of human resource dept," Indian Embassy in the Maldives tweeted.

"A modern cricket stadium using the latest technology and a capacity to seat 22,000 spectators will also come up in Hulhumale under the USD 800 million LoC," it said in another tweet.
