In this regard, museums, research organizations and the representative office of Rossotrudnichestvo in India are planning a number of events. Dr Elena Remizova invited the director of the museum, Dr Shashidwar Rao, to participate in a round table on the Pact, which will be held in mid-April in St. Petersburg with the support of the Roerich Family Museum, the Committee on Foreign Relations and the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg.

With the support of the Representative Office of Rossotrudnichestvo in India, an international scientific and expeditionary project "Afanasy Nikitin - 550" was launched in Delhi. The goal of the project is to collect scientific and historical data on the journey of the Russian merchant. As you know, his path passed through the Caucasus, Persia, India and Crimea. Afanasy Nikitin arrived in India 30 years before Vasco da Gama and became the first European to leave notes on his stay on the peninsula, including a description of the political structure, trade, agriculture, customs and traditions of India at that time. It should be noted that the Russian merchant became the first traveler who then visited Persia, where he lived for about two years. All this makes the notes that have come down to us a unique monument not only of Russian, but also of Indian and Persian culture of the 15th century.
Expedition members - historian, member of the St. Petersburg branch of the Russian Geographical Society Mr Denis Khrustalev and head of the Dialogue for the Development of Humanitarian Cooperation public organization, member of the Krasnoyarsk branch of the Russian Geographical Society Mr Ilya Bannikov, met Dr Elena Remizova, Head of the Rossotrudnichestvo Representative Office in India, and Dr Farid Asr, Advisor to the Iranian Embassy in India. The parties agreed to hold a joint event based on the results of the expedition.
Also, the expedition members met the members of the Youth Club at the Russian House in Delhi - they told many interesting facts about the life and travels of Afanasy Nikitin, as well as about their scientific goals. It is gratifying that the younger generation of Indians knows about the Russian traveler, largely thanks to the classic Soviet-Indian film "Journey beyond Three Seas/Pardesi."
The results of the expedition will be included in the new edition of “Journey...”, which is currently being prepared for publication by the Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House) of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
