Industry extends congratulations to the people of Estonia on the National day
of Estonia, which falls on 24th February.
“We all extend our best wishes to the people of Estonia on
their national day. We wish India and Estonia should do great business in the
coming years,” said Dr. Sandeep Marwah while releasing the poster on national
day to mark respect to the auspicious day.
The first person from Estonia to visit
India at the end of the 17th century was the cleric
Eberhard Eckhold (Eckholz) who was born in Tallinn
and had studied in the Academia Gustaviana of Tartu.
The first Estonian textbooks to mention
India were written by Georg Gottfried Marpurg (1805) and Karl Ernst Berg
(1811). The first Estonian publication to arrive in India was Pühhapäiwa Wahhe-luggemissed of Otto Wilhelm Masing (1818). The book contained
a hundred-page description of the nature and society of India. Sanskrit
language publications were printed at the University of Tartu.
