Embassy of India, Juba (South Sudan)Bilateral Relations Agreement • October 6th, 2023
South Sudan was a part of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan from 1899 – 1955 under joint British-Egyptian rule. After two civil wars (1962-72 and 1983-2005), it became an autonomous region (“Southern Sudan” ) in Sudan. India's position remained neutral in the long-running civil wars for autonomy of Southern Sudan. In 2005, a Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) was signed [ceremony attended by the then Indian Minister of State for External Affairs, Mr. E. Ahmed] between the Government of Sudan and Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) in Nairobi which led to the autonomy for the Southern part with a provision for South Sudanese referendum on independence in six years' time.
