Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday urged leaders of political parties to come together for the government’s plans for the G20 presidency, calling the year-long period when India will head the important international bloc an opportunity to showcase the country’s success story.
The Prime Minister was addressing an all-party meeting at Rashtrapati Bhavan, where he urged leaders to build a political consensus on the G20 agenda, which he described as "not for one individual." According to a meeting participant, "the PM said he called this meeting not as an individual, but because all of us are stakeholders in hosting this." 'This is for India,' he said. And we need all of your support."
According to the ministry of external affairs, Modi stated that the G20 presidency will attract a large number of foreign visitors and provide a chance to boost tourism and local economies. According to the MEA statement, he stated that India's G20 Presidency belongs to the entire nation and is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase India's strengths to the entire world.
According to the statement, the PM also stated that the G20 Presidency would help promote parts of India beyond the conventional big metros, bringing out the uniqueness of each part of the country. According to the leaders described above, Modi said in his closing statements that "our joint efforts" will be important for the presidency, which has come to India for the first time.
All leaders welcomed India's first G20 presidency, which began on December 1. Some opposition figures highlighted the need for the government to adhere to a national agenda. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, who reminded the PM of how India hosted the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit and the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in 2008 during Indira Gandhi's tenure, said the G20 presidency should be used to press China on border issues and trade imbalances.
Kharge also suggested that the presidency could be leveraged to secure New Delhi’s permanent membership in the UNSC.
West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee too asked the government to maintain a national agenda. CPI(M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury said that the credibility of India’s G20 theme — “One Earth, One Family, One Future” — crucially depends upon “creating a society and a political structure which is based on equality” but the “alarming levels of polarisation destroys the foundations of the declaration announced by the PM.”
CPI leader D Raja wanted to know how the government would take up issues facing the “Global South”. Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin offered full support and said: “We will show India’s greatness to the world. I thank our PM on behalf of Tamil Nadu’s people for this opportunity.”
