Belarus, India seek cooperation in high-tech energy

MOGILEV, 14 August (BelTA) – Belarus and India are interested to develop cooperation in high-tech energy, BelTA learnt from Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of India to Belarus Manoj Bharti.

On 13 August the diplomat attended a concert of classical Indian music in Mogilev to mark India’s Independence Day and the 20th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Belarus and India.

According to the Ambassador, cultural diplomacy helps expand cooperation borders between the two countries. Today Belarus is implementing projects in culture, education, science and high-tech energy in cooperation with India. Manoj Bharti cited as a good example a joint project with India’s Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) to upgrade the Grodno CHP plant No. 2. The company has similar offers to Mogilevenergo.

“Belarus has a lot of opportunities to attract investments in its economy, including in the electricity production and transportation, processing industry and agriculture. We also tend to focus our efforts on bilateral tourism,” the Ambassador said.
