India will participate in the biggest Russian trade meet that is expected to be launched by President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday.
The Indian delegation for St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) is to be led by Minister of Health and Family Welfare and Chemical and Fertilisers Mansukh Mandaviya and the focus will be on fertiliser and potash supplies as India rushes to ensure uninterrupted fertiliser supply in the kharif season.
Potash supply was hit in February as Western sanctions targeted Russia, the leading supplier of potash in the global market.
