عقدنا اجتماعاً استشرافياً مع معالي عبدالله بن طوق المري، وزير الاقتصاد والسياحة في دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة، في ظل التطورات الجيوسياسية المتسارعة وتأثيرها على عمليات المجال الجوي الإقليمي.

واتفقنا على تشكيل لجنة فنية ثلاثية تضم كلاً من الهند وسلطنة عُمان ودولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة، لمعالجة التحديات التشغيلية والعمل على إيجاد حلول منسقة ومشتركة.

كما مهّد الاجتماع الطريق للمناقشات الفنية المرتقبة بين إقليمي الشرق الأوسط (MID) وآسيا والمحيط الهادئ (APAC) التابعين لمنظمة الطيران المدني الدولي (الإيكاو)، والمقرر عقدها في وقت لاحق من هذا الشهر لبحث هذه المسألة.

حيثما وُجدت الإرادة، وُجد الطريق!

The @cgidubai commemorated Janjatiya Gaurav Divas with a special programme at the Consulate today, bringing together Consulate officials & around 100 students from 20 CBSE schools across Dubai and the Northern Emirates.

The programme marked the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda, the legendary tribal freedom fighter, and paid tribute to the invaluable contributions of tribal communities to India’s history, freedom struggle & culture. Students participated in a speech competition, portraying tribal freedom fighters through traditional attire and presentations. The winners were felicitated by the Consul General.

Adding an artistic dimension to the celebrations, six artists from UMSS Fine Arts and Fashion Academy, Abu Dhabi, under the banner of Kalashakthi, guided the students through a hands-on workshop on Sohrai Art, a traditional tribal art form, gaining an appreciation of India’s rich tribal artistic heritage.
