India and Russia: Strategic Synergy Emerging

Indo-Russian relations have weltered in the waves of time and withstood the litmus test of many changes over the years. From the journey of Afanasi Nikitin, a trader from Tver, to Revdanda in Maharashtra to the stellar heights of putting Rakesh Sharma to space, the gamut of synergy is as versatile as they are varied. Authored by a score of specialists from such diverse fields as academia, media, diplomacy and the corporate world from both countries, this book is a joint Indo-Russian endeavour by the very practitioners of bilateral camaraderie. It essays to provide a unique perspective on affirmative bilateral commonalities on a wide range of issues from commercial to cultural ties and from political closeness to cooperation in the energy sector.
