And 2020 promises to be yet another exciting year for Bahrain and India sports.

Mr. Shukla made it a point to thank His Highness Shaikh Khaled bin Hamad Al Khalifa for the impact he has made in the sports industry in India through mixed martial arts, as well as congratulating His Highness for his part in the development of sports in Bahrain.

At the meeting, that was also attended by Mr. Mohammed Mansoor, managing director for Exelon and chairman of Saara Group, they discussed the future of BRAVE Combat Federation and mixed martial arts in India, as well as cricket in Bahrain.

Different areas of cooperation between the two nations and their respective sporting futures were also discussed in Mr. Shukla's visit to the Kingdom of Bahrain.
