The Embassy of Turkey in New Delhi is the diplomatic mission of the Republic of Turkey to India. It is located in Chanakyapuri neighborhood of New Delhi.
The current ambassador is Fırat Sunel.[1][2]
History
The Embassy was established in 1948 to build India–Turkey relations.[3] Turkey recognised India right after its declaration of independence on 15 August 1947 and diplomatic relations were established between the two countries. As Turkey was part of the Western Alliance and India of the Non-Aligned Movement during the Cold War era, the bilateral relations did not develop at a desired pace. However, since the end of the Cold War era, both sides put in effort in developing their bilateral relations in every field.[4]
