The head of the Indian delegation, General Director of the Indian Council of World Affairs Nalin Surie expressed his gratitude to Russia for organizing this meeting. The diplomat has underlined that parliaments play an important role in development of relations between the two countries. “Indian-Russian partnership has promising future”, Nalin Surie noted.
