Mr. Rajiv Podar participated in the Russian Day celebrations in Mumbai hosted by  Mr. Ivan Fetisov, Consul General of the Russian Federation.

The event highlighted the time-tested Indo-Russian partnership, built on decades of mutual trust and strengthened by the close ties between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Vladimir Putin.

While defence remains a cornerstone, bilateral cooperation continues to grow across energy, technology, education, and trade, which has reached $69 billion and is targeted to hit $100 billion by 2030. Moving forward, we remain dedicated to fostering joint innovation, production, and business ties to unlock opportunities for future generations.
