India Prime Minister Manmohan Singh expressed interest in strengthening relations with the DR during a meeting with Dominican Ambassador Hans Dannenberg in New Delhi. Meeting on the occasion of the Republic of India Day, Prime Minister Singh expressed his concern about the tropical storms that affected the DR in 2007, and an interest in hearing an update on the DR-CAFTA implementation. He invited President Fernandez to visit India to bring bilateral relations to a new working level. Prime Minister Singh extended his usual courtesy greeting to ambassadors at the event to express his special interest in the DR. The DR has had an embassy in New Delhi since 2006, which has contributed to more active links. Among the achievements is the award of 30 scholarships to universities in India for Dominican students in 2007, as well as an increase in trade in pharmaceuticals, textiles, tobacco, metal products and motorcycles.
