<div><p>Over these last several decades, Bharat has come to be seen as a reliable partner and friend by successive Zambian leadership. The relationship continues to be driven by mutual respect and is based in a spirit of partnership for mutual benefit. Zambia is among a few African countries which considerably benefitted from Bharat’s development cooperation programme.

<div><p>Over these last several decades, Bharat has come to be seen as a reliable partner and friend by successive Zambian leadership. The relationship continues to be driven by mutual respect and is based in a spirit of partnership for mutual benefit. Zambia is among a few African countries which considerably benefitted from Bharat’s development cooperation programme. Bharat has provided <u><a href="https://www.eximbankindia.in/"><span style="color:#0000CD;">EXIM Bank</span></a></u> credits; railway wagons and flood relief grants and lines of credit besides fully paid scholarships for various higher education courses and <u><a href="https://www.itecgoi.in/"><span style="color:#0000CD;">ITEC</span></a></u> training slots as well as specialized capacity building programmes under IAFS.</p>

<div><p>Over these last several decades, Bharat has come to be seen as a reliable partner and friend by successive Zambian leadership.
