In a statement, the Indian leader highlighted the "vibrant relations" shared by both countries.
"UAE is our third-largest trade partner and fourth-largest exporter of crude oil for India. The qualitative enhancement of these ties is among one of our foremost foreign policy achievements," he said.
The Indian leader will meet His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, and discuss the "entire gamut of bilateral relations as well as regional and international issues of mutual interest".
