Sheikh Hamdan, who is also UAE’s Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister, will be accompanied by several ministers, senior government officials and a high level business delegation.
During his visit, the Crown Prince will also participate in a business roundtable with prominent business leaders from both sides in Mumbai.
“The interaction will strengthen India-UAE economic and commercial cooperation across traditional and futuristic areas,” the MEA said.

The majority of India's around 4.3 million diaspora in the UAE live and work in Dubai, the statement said.
