This document reports on the visit by the Soviet premier, Alexsei Kosygin, to India in March 1979.

During the visit a number of trade and scientific agreements are signed. The USSR expresses its readiness to cooperate in the nuclear field on the basis of peaceful use as laid down in the Indian-Soviet agreement of January 1979.
