A parliamentary delegation from the Russian Federation, led by Vyacheslav Volodin, Chairman of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, called on Indian President Droupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi on Monday.

Welcoming the delegation to India, the President said that exchanges of this nature among public representatives not only foster stronger cooperation but also allow the partnership to remain contemporary and updated.

She stated that the positive impact of regular contacts is also evident in the broader ‘India-Russia Special and Privileged Strategic Partnership’, which continues to benefit significantly from the ongoing interaction at various levels.

She said that mechanisms like the Inter-Parliamentary Commission have played an important role in facilitating cooperation.

She emphasised on special attention to closer interaction between women and youth parliamentarians of India and Russia.

The President shared with the delegation that she had inaugurated the New Delhi World Book Fair, where Russia is the Focus Country.

She said that this Fair gives Indian readers a wonderful opportunity to get to know the rich literary heritage of Russia.

She urged for stronger engagements in cultural and artistic domains.
