"We are great friends (India and Rwanda), and Rwanda has a good population of Indian community here...And, we have had a valid complaint of not having a resident mission in Kigali. Rwanda has about 3,000 people from Indian community and Ansari said, they are "very purposeful, very entrenched and very well-doing." Sources said, the decision to open the mission has reached advanced stage and a skeletal set up will be ready in few months. "Both countries have in principle agreed to open the mission here and modalities are being worked out," the source said.
