NDTV World Summit: PM Modi Highlights India's Role as a Beacon of Hope

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the 'NDTV World Summit' on Monday, introducing 'NDTV World,' the network's new channel. The two-day summit, themed 'The India Century,' showcases prominent figures from around the globe, including Bhutan's Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay, Barbados' Prime Minister Mia Mottley, former UK Prime Minister David Cameron, and India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar. They are set to discuss pressing global issues.

In his opening remarks, PM Modi emphasized the shared concerns facing nations today. "If we look at the current events, one thing is common in every discussion. It is a concern related to the future. During the Covid pandemic, the concern was how to deal with the global pandemic. Concerns about the global economy also rose in its aftermath. It also facilitated the concerns of inflation, unemployment, along with that of climate change. The wars and conflicts raised the concerns of ruining the global supply chain. Innocent lives have been lost due to the ongoing tensions and conflicts that have become the point of discussions in various global summits," he said.

Amid these challenges, Modi highlighted India's optimism. "In the midst of global instability, India is a ray of hope. It is not that we are not affected by global concerns, but there is a sense of positivity that we feel in India. India has emerged as a beacon of hope," he stated.
