New Delhi:
External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid Monday inaugurated a
course on parliamentary processes and procedures to be attended by
14 officials from seven Arabic-speaking countries.
Officials from Algeria, Bahrain, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Sudan
and Tunisia will attend the course, officials said.
"The Arab Spring had ushered in a fresh wave of democracy in the
countries of the Middle-East, which has necessitated the process
of institution-building and manpower training so as to effectively
run the representative bodies in those countries," said Khurshid.
He hoped the programme would help the participants to understand
the intricacies of practices and procedures of the Indian
parliament.
Under an initiative taken by Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar, the
Special Training Programme is being organised by the Bureau for
Parliamentary Studies and Training April 15 to 26.
