This has further reference to our earlier circular dated 7th September 2011 informing about the proposed Business Delegation to Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, during 4th December - 17th December 2011.
We have been informed by our Embassy of India in Moscow, Russia that they would not be in a position to accommodate the delegation during December 2011. They have recommended that the delegation should consider organizing a BSM only during the 2012. Hence, Pharmexcil proposes to go as per the recommendations of our Mission.
However, our participation in APTEKA 2011 Exhibition at Moscow, Russia remains as per schedule. Those delegates participating in APTEKA 2011 exhibition can continue further by joining the delegation at Almaty, Kazakhstan after the exhibition.
In view of the above, Council’s delegation would now be visiting Almaty – Kazakhstan, Bishkek – Kyrgyzstan and Tashkent – Uzbekistan. The proposed delegation itinerary would be revised as follows:
