Visited Delhi’s oldest Durga Puja pandal in Kashmere Gate, established in 1910. My wife and I were delighted to join the celebrations honouring Ma Durga and the power of women. Wonderful to meet the community keeping this tradition alive across generations.
Happy Durga Puja! 🙏
Deeply saddened to hear of the tragic incident in Kolkata last night, where so many precious lives were lost while celebrating Durga Puja. I offer my condolences to all families who have lost loved ones and extend my best wishes to those injured.

As an old friend of India, I got to witness its evolution over the decades, emerging as an economic powerhouse while preserving its cultural identity.
At the @TimesNow Defence Conclave, I shared my perspectives on India’s journey and its changing role in the world.
“If the deal materialises, it will involve comprehensive technology sharing.”
German Ambassador to India Dr. Jasper Wieck discusses the potential submarine deal with India, highlighting local manufacturing, technology transfer and long-term maintenance and upgrade capabilities.

India and Germany share interests in the Indo-Pacific. Our economies and the prosperity of our people depend on safe and secure sea lanes across the oceans. We therefore both support a rules-based international order and freedom of navigation, and we must act accordingly: @GermanAmbIndia speaks to @akankshaswarups

Deeply shocked by this tragedy! I extend my sincere condolences to the families of the victims. My thoughts are with you during this time of sadness and grief.
Three Indian nationals (two women and one man) have tragically lost their lives in a fire incident in Bochum, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. All 3 were studying in Germany.
Embassy of India in Berlin and Consulate General of India in Frankfurt are in contact with local authorities and the bereaved families, and are extending all necessary assistance. The incident is under investigation by German authorities.
We extend our deepest condolences to the bereaved families in this hour of grief.

After two days of intense discussions at the @MunSecConf Munich Leaders Meeting in Delhi, I had the pleasure to host participants and members of India’s bright strategic community for a farewell reception. India is visibly moving to the centre of strategic discussions worldwide.
Utterly enjoyed hosting @IGYLF alumni! Young talents are crucial for shaping 🇩🇪🇮🇳 relations, bringing ideas, energy & vision to our partnership. Co-Founders Max von Laer & Vishnu Ramdeo are doing a great job! Investing in the next generation means investing in our shared future.
The @INDOGSTC is a catalyst for applied scientific cooperation between 🇮🇳 and 🇩🇪.
I’m happy to see how the Center has grown over the past decade, bringing Indian and German academia and industry together to innovate and improve the daily lives of our citizens.
This year’s Munich Leaders Meeting was hosted by New Delhi, which highlights India’s growing role in global affairs and the strengthening Indo-German partnership. Here are my reflections on the meeting. 🇮🇳🇩🇪

Democracy, sovereignty and national unity cannot be taken for granted. For 45 years, Germany was divided, a division symbolised by the Berlin Wall. In 1990, 36 years ago, Germany reunified peacefully. What an opportunity to be grateful and to celebrate!
As we celebrate Mahatma Gandhi’s birthday today, I fondly remember my visit to Sabarmati Ashram in 2019.
Gandhi Jayanti reminds us of Gandhiji’s message of non-violence and respect for human dignity - values that remain as relevant today as ever across the globe.
Here are some reflections from my recent visit to Mumbai. 🇮🇳🇩🇪
As India’s financial capital, Mumbai plays an important role in advancing the Indo-German partnership, bringing together business, innovation and new opportunities for cooperation.
Great to meet India’s journalists today at my first press briefing as the new German Ambassador! Indo-German relations are unfolding with unprecedented dynamism, an energy you could feel in the room today!
Honoured to present my credentials to @king_jigme in Thimphu as 🇩🇪 Ambassador to Bhutan 🇧🇹. Germany & Bhutan are trusted partners. During the audience with His Majesty I commended Bhutan’s strong commitment to a rules-based international order & the protection of the environment.

First visit outside Delhi brought me to beautiful, vibrant Mumbai to celebrate 70 years of @IndoGerman. Close interactions with 🇩🇪& 🇮🇳 business, @MazagonDockLtd and with our Schengen-Visa team. 200,000 German visas issued each year in India - great job!

Germany stands by the victims of the disastrous flood in Nepal. We are providing tarpaulins, water filters, mosquito nets as well as financial support to local NGOs and international aid organisations. A swift response is crucial!
