The Indian High Commissioner Gopal Baglay called on the Australian Member of Parliament and chair of the India-Australia Parliamentary Friendship Group, Andrew Charlton on Tuesday and discussed multifaceted bilateral ties between the two countries. During their conversation, both leaders also discussed India-Australia cooperation in education, trade, investment, and people-to-people ties.
The leaders also exchanged views on further enhancing parliamentary interaction between the two countries and appreciated the role of the Indian diaspora in cementing bilateral relations.

Earlier this month, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar met Australian High Commissioner to India Philip Green and discussed the bilateral partnership between the two countries. The EAM will also be heading to Perth for the Indian Ocean Conference 2024 later this year. "Glad to meet Australian High Commissioner Philip Green this afternoon.

The Australian Foreign Minister, Penny Wong, announced last year that Australia will host the Indian Ocean Conference 2024 and will be an opportunity to discuss practical solutions for the key challenges facing the region. Last year, the two countries also held the India-Australia 2+2 Defence and Foreign Ministerial Dialogue.
