‘The country is supplying to the Indian defence sector for a long time’
The Coimbatore District Small Industries Association (Codissia) has urged Bulgaria to look at joint ventures here, especially in the defence sector.
M.V. Ramesh Babu, president of Codissia, said the Ambassador of Bulgaria to India, Eleonora Dimitrova, was in the city recently. She invited business delegations from here to four major exhibitions to be held in Bulgaria next year. The Codissia urged her to explore opportunities for joint ventures between industries in Coimbatore and Bulgaria in the defence sector. Bulgaria is supplying to the Indian defence sector for a long time, he said.
“We have shown our interest to have further interaction in future regarding combining the start-ups from CODISSIA Defence Innovation and Atal Incubation Centre (CDIIC) and Bulgaria and explore the opportunities to work together,” said Mr. Ramesh Babu in a press release.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
