// C# code to check if a value 
// is present or not in a Dictionary.

using System.Collections.Generic;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void Main()
    {

        // Create a new dictionary of 
        // strings, with string keys.
        Dictionary<string, string> myDict = 
          new Dictionary<string, string>();

        // Adding key/value pairs in myDict
        myDict.Add("Australia", "Canberra");
        myDict.Add("Belgium", "Brussels");
        myDict.Add("Netherlands", "Amsterdam");
        myDict.Add("China", "Beijing");
        myDict.Add("Russia", "Moscow");
        myDict.Add("India", "New Delhi");

        myDict.Add("India", "New Delhi");

        // Checking for value Moscow
        if (myDict.ContainsValue("Moscow"))
            Console.WriteLine("Value : Moscow is present");
