A parliamentary delegation from the Russian Federation, led by the Chairman of the State Duma of Russia, Vyacheslav Volodin, called on President Droupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi. Welcoming the delegation, 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.
The President stated that the positive impact of regular contacts is also evident in the broader ‘India-Russia Special and Privileged Strategic Partnership’. The President noted that at the leadership level, there is regular interaction between Prime Minister Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The level of cooperation between both parliaments has also been very good. The President said that mechanisms like the Inter-Parliamentary Commission have played an important role in facilitating cooperation. President Murmu emphasised special attention to closer interaction between women and youth parliamentarians of India and Russia.
