They also visited key institutions, including RDF Headquarters, the RDF Command and Staff College at Musanze, the Kigali Genocide Memorial and Rwanda Cooperation.

“The evening provided an invaluable opportunity for informal interaction and contextual learning, enabling the delegation to better appreciate the political, socio-economic and cultural nuances of Rwanda and the close and cordial India-Rwanda relationship, beyond the formal programme,” the High Commission noted on X.
“As the first-ever NDC delegation to visit Rwanda, the programme provided senior military officers, civil servants and international participants with a unique opportunity to gain first-hand insights into Rwanda’s remarkable journey of socio-economic transformation, reconciliation and regional leadership. The visit also reinforced the warm and growing ties between India and Rwanda and highlighted significant opportunities for deeper cooperation in defence education, professional military exchanges, peacekeeping, training and capacity building. It also underscored Rwanda’s emergence as an important strategic partner for India in Africa,” it added.
