Hanoi: Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh visited the training institutions of Vietnam on June 10, 2022 - the final day of his three-day official visit to the Southeast Asian country.

Rajnath Singh, who is in Vietnam to enhance defence cooperation between the two countries, began his day’s engagements by paying a visit to Air Force Officers Training School at Nha Trang.

He handed over a gift of one million dollars on behalf of Government of India for the establishment of a language and IT laboratory in the School. Addressing the Officers at the School, he hoped that the laboratory would substantially contribute to sharpen the language and IT skills of Air Defence and Air Force personnel of Vietnam, read a government statement.

I am pleased to handover a gift of 5 million Indian Rupees for procurement of training aids. I believe this shall increase teaching efficacy and result in better and easy assimilation by the trainees at the University: RM
