reported last week by the defense news website StrategyPage, and circulated in Russia by business daily Kommersant. The report claimed that India had allowed a group of US Navy personnel to visit the Russian-made Chakra attack submarine, in violation of the lease contract. The nuclear-powered Chakra was transferred to the Indian Navy in 2012 after serving for three years under the name Nerpa in Russia.

‘Chakra’ opened to 3rd eyes: India reportedly allowed US Navy to visit Russian sub
Commenting on the claim on Monday, Dmitry Shugaev, the head of the Russian Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation, called the report “bogus.”

“We will not respond to such provocations,” he told Rossiya 24. “Somebody is trying by all [sorts] of tricks to push us out, but India remains our strategic partner. And Indian people and its leadership see us as their strategic partners,” he explained.

India is currently one of world’s biggest arms buyers, investing heavily in the modernization of its armed forces. Russia is a traditional provider of sophisticated military hardware for Delhi, building aircraft and naval ships of designs adopted for India’s requirements. The two countries also cooperate on a number of high-profile joint defense projects, like the ramjet supersonic BrahMos

News about India having allowed US military personnel to enter the nuclear submarine INS Chakra are false, said the director of the Federal Service of Technical-Military Cooperation of Russia, Dmitry Shugaev.

"They are fakes," Shugaev said during an interview with Russian channel Rossiya 24 when he answered the question.

Earlier, the Kommersant edition quoted the website strategypage, which cited anonymous sources as saying that Moscow suspects that New Delhi would have allowed US military personnel to enter the nuclear submarine INS Chakra, formerly known as Nerpa . Since 2011, the Asian country is using the vessel, which was rented from Russia.

I doubt anyone will reply to this thread. Many are hidding under rocks.

They will only respond to conspiracies, fake news, some $20 per hour freelance journalists articles, and anything negative about India.

But this is from "Dmitry Shugaev, the head of the Russian Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation" so all will be hiding under rocks, under pc table, and inside shoes.
