The event was attended by the General Secretary of the Communist Party of India (CPI), D. Raja, and the member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and General Secretary of the Indian Peace and Solidarity Organization (AIPSO), Arun Kumar.

Likewise, his work in the construction of bonds of friendship, solidarity and cooperation, which have characterized the relations between the peoples of Cuba and India, was recalled.
Part of his life and work was also evoked with the reproduction of the documentary "Fidel es Fidel", by Cuban filmmaker Roberto Chile, which is inspired by the personality of the historic leader and includes moments of his revolutionary work.
