  • India-Kenya Relations
    India-Kenya Relations Kenya is an East African nation with Uganda (west), South Sudan (northwest), Ethiopia (north), Somalia (northeast), Tanzania (south) as its neighbours. Kenya gained independence from Britain in 1963. It has been governed by Presidents Jomo Kenyatta (1963-78), Daniel arap Moi (1978-2002) and Mwai Kibaki (2002-2013). H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta took over as President on 9 April 2013. H.E. William Ruto is the Deputy President. Kenyans approved a new constitution in a referendum on August 04 2010 which came into force on August 27 2010. With a population of nearly 40 million (42% below 14 years), Kenya has great ethnic diversity. The East African coast and the west coast of India have long been linked by merchants. The Indian Diaspora in Kenya has contributed actively to Kenya’s progress. Many Kenyans have studied in India. In recent times, there is a growing trade (US$ 3.87 billion in 2012-13) and investment partnership. Indian firms have invested in telecommunications, petrochemicals and chemicals, floriculture, etc. and have executed engineering contracts in the power and other sectors. Before Independence, India had taken interest in the welfare of Indians in East Africa and several fact-finding missions visited East Africa such as the one led by Shri K.P.S. Menon in September 1934. In 1924, Sarojini Naidu was invited to chair the Mombasa session of the East African Indian Congress. H.N. Kunzru was another such invitee. India established the office of Commissioner (later Commissioner General) for British East Africa resident in Nairobi in 1948. Following Kenyan independence in December 1963, a High Commission was established.
