Govt Shows Interest To Tap Infrastructure Funds From Arab

Bullish on bilateral cooperation in infrastructure projects, India will take a team to Saudi Arabia in May that will be headed by the Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission, Mr Montek Singh Ahluwalia.

The effort would be to attract infrastructure funds for India from the Arab countries. The move to beef up cooperation between the two regions would be followed by a series of events, including an Indo-Arab Festival and a partnership conference in November and an Arab cultural festival, to be organised by the FICCI here under the Ministry of External Affairs.
