Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated on Wednesday, before to the opening of the Winter Session of Parliament, that India receiving the G20 Presidency is a big opportunity.
PM Modi told reporters before the commencement of the first day of the Winter Session of Parliament, "The first day of Winter Session has arrived. This session is significant since we met before August 15th. On August 15, we celebrated 75 years of independence, and we are moving forward in Azadi ka Amrit Kaal. We are convening at a time when India has been appointed to preside over the G20."
"The manner in which India has made a space in global community, the manner in which expectations with India have risen and the manner in which India is increasing its participation on global platform, at a time like this, India receiving the G20 Presidency is a huge opportunity," PM Modi said.
"This G20 Summit is not only a diplomatic event, but it is also an opportunity to showcase India's capability to the world. Such a large country, mother of democracy, such diversity, such capability-it's an opportunity for the world to know India and for India to show its capability to the world," he added.
