(MENAFN) India and Russia have initiated the 15-day military exercise named ‘Indra 2025’ in the desert area of Rajasthan. Approximately 250 Russian soldiers are participating alongside Indian forces in these training drills, according to a statement from the Russian Embassy in New Delhi.
“The joint exercises confirm the nature of the special, privileged strategic partnership between Moscow and New Delhi,” the embassy emphasized.
The operations are being conducted near the city of Bikaner, designed to replicate desert-like conditions, the announcement added.
