Indian Presidency for G20 under PM Narendra Modi would strengthen the grouping at the global level as PM’s views are highly valued by the global leaders, said Mr Harsh Vardhan Shringla, Chief Coordinator, G20 and Former Foreign Secretary, at AIMA’s 8th National Leadership Conclave 2023.

One notable platform, where we are witnessing the implementation of this human-centric approach, is the Quad, an alliance that focuses on key areas of mutual interests. With India assuming the presidency of the G20, I anticipate further advancements in this direction. The G20, with its global influence, can pave the way for a human-centric globalization.
