India strengthened its diplomatic ties with Suriname by dispatching a significant consignment of food grains and edibles to support Suriname's Social Welfare Programme. This gesture underscores the historical connections between the two nations, rooted in the Indian diaspora. Since establishing diplomatic relations in 1976, India and Suriname have fostered cooperation through embassy establishments in Paramaribo (1977) and New Delhi (2000). This humanitarian assistance highlights India's commitment to supporting the welfare initiatives of its partner nations, particularly in the Caribbean region. This move also reinforces the bilateral bond between India and Suriname.
