Earlier this month, Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi met Major General Mereke Kuchekbayev, Chief of Land Forces of Kazakhstan, on the sidelines of the United Nations Triangular Cooperation Conference (UNTCC) 2025, reaffirming the strong defence partnership between the two countries.
According to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), relations between India and Kazakhstan date back over 2,000 years, rooted in trade, cultural exchange, and shared philosophical traditions. "The journey of Buddhism from India to Central Asia and Sufi ideas from Central Asia to India are two such examples," the MEA noted.
India was among the first nations to recognize Kazakhstan's independence following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Diplomatic relations were formally established on February 22, 1992. The Indian Embassy opened in Almaty in May 1992, followed by the opening of Kazakhstan's Embassy in New Delhi in 1993.
After Kazakhstan's capital shifted from Almaty to Astana in 1997, India opened a representative office there in September 2003. The two countries have since built a multifaceted partnership encompassing political, economic, cultural, and defence cooperation. (ANI)
