Salauat Yeshengeldiev:

«I am delighted to have had the opportunity to visit such a culturally rich country as India and participate in the Youth Exchange Program 2025 in the Desert Safari format. I was one of the representatives of the delegation of the Republic of Kazakhstan from the Military Department of the D. Serikbayev Higher School of Culture. The main goal of our trip was to represent Kazakhstan well through cultural and educational events.

The camp was attended by cadets from all 17 departments of the National Council for Culture of India (NCC India), as well as 15 cadets from the PHHP&C delegation, joined by representatives from Kazakhstan and Nepal. As part of the program, we visited famous historical sites and went on a camel safari through the golden dunes of the desert. The Kazakhstan delegation actively interacted with representatives from India and Nepal, which made a significant contribution to strengthening international friendship and intercultural understanding. The camp was a unique combination of rich cultural exchange and educational tourism in the desert. The trip included visits to New Delhi, Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Jaisalmer, as well as key landmarks such as India Gate, Royal Albert Hall Museum, Mehrangarh Fort, the National War Memorial, Umaid Bhawan Palace, Hawa Mahal, and the Lotus Temple.

As a student in the Law program at KAFU, I gained valuable practical experience. The trip allowed me to see India from the inside, participate in international events, interact with foreign delegations, and appreciate the potential of international exchange programs. Participation in this program helped develop my international communication skills, intercultural interaction, and broaden my professional horizons.»

Berikzhan Amangazin:

«During my study visit to the Republic of India, I participated in an experience exchange program for military cadets. Upon arrival, the host country organized a high-level meeting, providing appropriate accommodation, support, and security.

The visit program was carefully planned and fully implemented. During the trip, educational and practical activities were held aimed at sharing professional experiences and familiarizing us with the cadet training and education system at Indian military academies.

As part of the program, we studied the organization of the educational process, discipline, daily routine, and traditions of Indian cadets. The knowledge and practical experience gained contributed to broadening our professional horizons and improving our level of training.

Overall, the trip was highly organized, and the stated goals and objectives were fully achieved. I consider participation in this program to be useful and beneficial for my further professional and personal development.» Department of Law and International Affairs
