POLAND BECKONS!

He’s got that special glint in his eyes and an easy manner that would make you thump him on the back and make buddies in the street. “Of course that’s what Polish people are like,” he explains, “Quite like the Indians. Very warm and friendly”. He would know. After all, his association with India spans over two decades including several years as an engineering student in Bangalore.

This ‘expert opinion’ comes from a gentleman who, when on duty, is His Excellency Dr Krzysztof Majka, Ambassador of the Republic of Poland!

In Lucknow, as the guest of honour at the Lalit Kala Akademi, Dr Majka gushed about the growing ties between India and Poland. “In the recent past, development of business relations, exchange of ideas and services have grown.

More and more students are finding Poland a fantastic place to study in with economical facilities as compared to the rest of European Union. Cultural exchange has grown between the two countries,” he says.

Remember Amir Khan’s Fanaa was shot in Poland?

Of course, there are several other areas of concern between the two countries, including exports, gas and oil, pharma sector, textiles etc, says this Yoga practitioner who also loves Indian spicy food. Music afficionado and an avid swimmer, Dr Majka adds, “Polish varsities also have special Indology Departments and the interest in Asia is just growing”.

So, here’s three cheers to Indo-Polish friendship!
