नेपालको राष्ट्रिय स्वतन्त्र पार्टीका सभापति श्री रवि लामिछानेज्यूसँग भेट्न पाउँदा अत्यन्तै खुशी लागेको छ । एक साझा र समृद्ध भविष्यका लागि मिलेर काम गर्ने वहाँको चाहनालाई म स्वागत गर्दछु र त्यसमा पूर्ण रुपमा सहमत छु ।

It was indeed a great delight to engage in such a productive hour-long conversation with Hon. PM @narendramodi today. I share your vision for a future where Nepal and India transcend past constraints to embrace a new era of development diplomacy. By focusing on shared civilizational bonds, digital corridors, and seamless connectivity, we can truly build a partnership defined by progress and mutual trust. RSP looks forward to translating these possibilities into reality for people of Nepal and India - for our shared prosperity.

.@orfonline is hosting an Ambassadors' Round Table titled ‘Rubio's Delhi Visit: Arresting the Drift in US-India Relations?’

This roundtable will bring together senior diplomats to assess what Rubio's visit reveals about the current state of U.S.-India relations, the institutional resilience of the Quad, and whether the Trump administration's regional engagement reflects a coherent strategic vision or an exercise in managed ambiguity.

[Jawed Ashraf @JawedAshraf5]

An interesting day speaking in two different panels - on India-Russia Relations and on India-U.S. relations (online).
On Russia: broad based and balanced trade, insulated from external constraints, important for a key geopolitical partnership.

On the U.S.: structural challenges in bilateral relations, not just Trumpian policies; long term shifts in U.S. global engagement; India’s own trajectory and a new global era calls for new terms of engagement.
Lessons from how India pursued its goals with the U.S. after 1998.

जब हम स्वदेशी उत्पाद खरीदते हैं, तो उसका लाभ किसी न किसी भारतीय परिवार तक पहुंचता है।

माननीय केंद्रीय वाणिज्य एवं उद्योग मंत्री श्री @PiyushGoyal जी ने #BharatiyaVyaparMahotsav2026 के वेबसाइट के शुभारंभ अवसर पर स्वदेशी और Made in India को आत्मनिर्भर भारत के लक्ष्य को सशक्त करने हेतु अपने विचार रखे।

CAIT के लिए @Bvm2026 भारत के व्यापारियों, उद्यमियों, MSMEs और स्वदेशी व्यापार व्यवस्था को वैश्विक स्तर पर नई पहचान देने का एक ऐतिहासिक प्रयास है। 12–15 अगस्त 2026 को भारत मंडपम, नई दिल्ली में आयोजित यह महोत्सव भारतीय व्यापार, नवाचार और आर्थिक स्वाभिमान के विराट उत्सव के रूप में देश की व्यापारिक ऊर्जा को एक मंच पर लेकर आएगा।
