According to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India accomplished extraordinary things while serving as the G20 president by reviving multilateralism, amplifying the voice of the Global South, promoting development, and fighting for the emancipation of women everywhere. Brazil is scheduled to assume the presidency on December 1. Modi emphasized the elite group’s journey under Indian leadership and conveyed his confidence that his nation will hand over the reins with the conviction that our collective actions for the planet, people, peace, and prosperity will have a lasting impact.
Modi stated that India’s strategy was “inclusive, ambitious, action-oriented, and decisive” in an opinion piece that ran in multiple newspapers on Thursday. He added that the New Delhi Leaders’ Declaration (NDLD), which was accepted by all G20 members without dissent, is proof of our dedication to implementing these ideals. Noting that it has been 365 days since India assumed the Chair, he stated that, at the time, multilateralism was waning and the world was facing a number of complex challenges, including recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, impending climate threats, financial instability, and debt distress in developing countries.
“It is a moment to reflect, recommit, and rejuvenate the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam — ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’,” he said on the event of India passing the baton to Brazil.
He recalled the period when India assumed power last year and claimed that rivalry and strife hindered development cooperation, which prevented advancement.
