Mongolia’s National Festival Welcomes Indian Envoy, Boosts Energy Project

The Nadam 2026 celebrations also served as a platform to highlight ongoing cooperation in the energy sector. Last week, former President Nambaryn Enkhbayar praised the progress of the Dornogovi Oil Refinery project, which is being built with a $1.7 billion line‑of‑credit from the Indian government. The refinery is deemed crucial for Mongolia’s long‑term energy security and sustainable power supply. Ambassador Malhari’s participation was viewed as an affirmation of India’s commitment to the project.
