BRICS has much potential in many areas, including science, technology - Indian ambassador to Russia

MOSCOW. June 29 (Interfax) - Delhi hopes that that the year of Russia's presidency in BRICS will allow for the boosting of cooperation in a number of spheres, including science and technologies, Indian Ambassador to Russia Pundi Srinivasan Raghavan said.

"There is considerable potential for strengthening intra-BRICS cooperation in areas like online education, affordable healthcare platforms, virtual BRICS University, small and medium enterprises, tourism, youth exchanges and science and technology. We hope to see forward movement in these areas in BRICS 2015," Raghavan said in an interview with Interfax.

"Therefore, we can say BRICS today plays an important role in global politics and economics," he said.
