Hifzur Rahman appointed as Ambassador to Libya

Hifzur Rahman, currently India’s Ambassador to Chad, has been appointed as India’s new Ambassador to the State of Libya. This marks India’s renewed diplomatic focus on Libya, following the reopening of its embassy in Tripoli last year. His appointment comes amid efforts to strengthen Indo-Libyan bilateral ties and revive economic and diplomatic cooperation. The move signals renewed Indian engagement in North Africa’s geopolitics and foreign-policy outreach.
