Iranian delegation visits Kashmir to promote educational and cultural ties | A seven-member Iranian delegation is currently
on a visit to Jammu and Kashmir's Kargil District to strengthen the age-old cultural ties between the two countries and promote educational activities in the region.
The delegation, which is led by spiritual leader Hujjat Ul Mohsin Qommi Aghae
includes Kareem Najaffe, Cultural Councilor of Iran. "We are very much interested
in cultural ties especially the Iranian culture and our desire is to provide an
impetus to educational activities. Wherever such endeavour is made, we want to
applaud that effort," said Aghae. "We have heard that in Kargil efforts are being
made for the betterment of the future generation. We want to see that and we want
to congratulate them," he added. Kargil and Iran share a centuries-old, close
cultural and civilization relation. The two regions have in the past influenced
each other in the fields of culture, art, architecture and language. "We are happy
to collaborate with the Government of India for cultural activities. As you know
this Shaheed Mutahhari is the centre of educational activities and we are happy
that we can improve education in India," said Kareem Najaffe, Cultural Councilor
