Welcome Message

Dear Colleagues,

It is with immense pleasure and privilege that we welcome you to India Live 2026, the Fifteenth National Course on Cardiovascular Interventions, proudly organized by the Interventional Cardiology Foundation of India.

This year’s theme— “Innovate, Integrate, Intervene”—captures our unwavering commitment to advancing cardiovascular care through collaboration, creativity, and clinical excellence. India Live traces its origins to 2010, when a visionary group of pioneers united around a shared mission: to elevate the field of interventional cardiology and inspire the next generation. Thus, the Interventional Cardiology Foundation of India was born. Fifteen years later, this flagship organization stands tall shaped by bold interventions, groundbreaking innovations, and a legacy of excellence.

Renowned for its scientific rigor, dynamic format, and enthusiastic participation from clinicians and industry leaders alike, India Live continues to set the benchmark for cardiovascular education. With a strong emphasis on academic depth and hands-on learning, we’ve curated a world-class faculty featuring India’s leading interventionalists alongside distinguished global experts.

The conference will begin on March 19 with a dedicated Fellows Course, reaffirming our commitment to nurturing young and aspiring interventional cardiologists.

The hub of New Delhi is world famous Connaught Place (Rajiv Chowk), the circular shopping extravaganza created by the Great Lutyen. The Place, popularly referred to as CP, is a site no tourist should miss, if for nothing else then for its architecture and humdrum of everyday life. Nearby Janpath is most popular shopping area for handicrafts.

Red Fort:
Built with red sandstone, which gives it its name, the fort is one of the best surviving monuments. It was built by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1638 AD. It is a mini city in itself. The fort has two entrances – Delhi Gate and Lahori Gate.
Jama Masjid:
One of the Architectural gifts given by Shah Jahan, Jama Masjid is the largest mosque in India. Completed in 1658, this Mosque has three gateways, four angle towers and two 40-metre-high minarets.

His successor, Iltutmush, added three more storeys, and in 1368, Firoz Shah Tughlak constructed the fifth and the last storey.

Haridwar means gateway to the Gods. Haridwar's auspicious location at the point, where the Ganges emerges from the high Himalayas to begin its slow progress across the plains, makes it a particularly holy place. The main Ghat, HAR KI PAURI, is supposed to be at the precise spot, where the Ganges leaves the mountains and enters the plains. Rishikesh is 24 km north of Haridwar and is surrounded by hills on three sides.
