Birla praised the Indian community in Russia and said that the Indians here, who have a reputation as disciplined, hardworking, and law-abiding people, have made every Indian proud of their contributions to the development of both countries.

He further urged the Indian Diaspora to promote their motherland in Russia and continue to strengthen the relationship between the two countries.

Birla noted the participation of Russians in Indian festivals and said that such people-to-people connections are the strength of bilateral relations between the two countries.

He elaborated on how the present government has started a new era of change, development, and prosperity in the country.

Birla observed that even after becoming the Prime Minister for the third time, his energy, his enthusiasm for serving the country, and his resolve for a developed India give eternal inspiration to others to serve the country selflessly.

“Changes that are taking place in India have enhanced respect for Indians at the global level and have enhanced the value of Indian passportss,” Birla added.

Highlighting on India-Rusia relationship, Birla said that the bond between the two countries is based on the foundation of mutual trust and mutual respect.

“Whenever India or Russia has faced any challenge, both the countries have supported each other. There has been a unique relationship between India and Russia, a relationship of friendship, and of family. Russia has been India’s partner in happiness and sorrow, India’s trusted friend,” he said.

Birla continued that the relationship covers almost every sphere, including cooperation in security, defense, trade, economy, science and technology, satellite navigation and remote sensing, education, and culture.
