‘Matter of pride for Indians’: PM Modi takes over India’s G20 presidency in Bali | India News – Times of India
NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday took over G20 presidency at the summit in Indonesia’s Bali.
In his closing remarks, PM Modi said that it is a matter of pride for every Indian as the country takes over the presidency of the G20.
“We will organise G20 meetings in different states and cities in India. Together we will make G20 a catalyst for global change,” he said.
PM Modi said that India’s G20 presidency will be “inclusive, ambitious, decisive and action-oriented.”
“In the next one year, it will be our endeavour that G20 works as a global prime mover to give impetus to collective action,” PM Modi said.
India will assume G20 presidency for one year, beginning December 1, 2022.
Earlier, PM Modi said that the principle of “data for development” will be an integral part of the overall theme of India’s upcoming G20 Presidency.
“Digital transformation is the most remarkable change of our era. The proper use of digital technologies can become a force multiplier in the decades-long global fight against poverty,” Modi said at a session on digital transformation.
The digital transformation should not be confined to a small part of the human race and its greater benefits will be realised only when digital access becomes truly inclusive, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said at the G20 summit on Wednesday.
PM Modi said India’s experience in the past few years has shown that if digital architecture is made widely accessible, it can bring about socio-economic transformation.
