The agreements were signed by Russian RusITExport (RITE), a key integrator of top Russian IT solutions in the global market, and Indian firm Aark Infosoft Pvt Ltd. for development of complex IT projects in India. The agreements were signed in Dubai at the GITEX Information Technology Forum held earlier this month, in the presence of the Indian Ambassador to UAE. The first stage of the implementation of the agreement will be the development of a road map, Russian officials said. As per the MoU, the companies will cooperate in the Smart City projects in three cities in India but the names were not revealed. The two sides will also cooperate on de- velopment of cyber security systems and electronic elections, Parliamentary secretary Eshak Konyak along with department officials at the inauguration of Art and which refers to electronically conducted election process, Culture office in Longleng on October 20. including security solutions. “The Indian IT market is one of the fastest growing in Dimapur, Oct. 21 (EMN): Longleng district. ing of a district cultural the world.

As people naturally gravitate into groups of “a certain kind” and cluster PATH around those they feel comfortable with, it leaves others feeling marginalized. But that’s not what Jesus had in mind when He told His disciples to “love each other as I have loved you” (John 15:12).
