New Delhi, July 2025 : Members of the British Business Group (BBG) convened for a high-level interaction at the British High Commission in New Delhi, engaging in insightful discussions surrounding economic, political, and strategic cooperation between India and the United Kingdom. The session underscored the growing synergy between both nations, especially in areas of trade, innovation, education, and cultural diplomacy.

The gathering also became a moment of celebration as BBG members extended their heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Sandeep Marwah, a distinguished media personality and visionary leader, for receiving three prestigious international honors during his recent visit to the United Kingdom. Dr. Marwah was honoured at the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh, the Oxford Union Society at Oxford, and the British Parliament in London for his exemplary and tireless contribution to strengthening India–UK relations through art, culture, education, and media diplomacy.

Dr. Marwah, who also serves as Chair of the Indo UK Film and Cultural Forum and Indo Wales Creative Forum, expressed gratitude for the recognition and reaffirmed his commitment to building enduring partnerships between the two nations.
“The growing collaboration between India and the UK across strategic sectors is deeply encouraging.

Through our forums, we aim to further deepen people-to-people ties, empower youth, and open new avenues for creative and economic cooperation,” stated Dr. Marwah.

Prominent members present during the interaction included Kalyan Bose, Tarun Singhal, Seema Kukreja, among other notable leaders from the business and diplomatic community.
