Development and prosperity of the Global South is an important issue for PM Modi as many nations from the South Pacific, Latin America and Africa feel New Delhi represents their aspiration at global and multilateral levels.

During the BRICS Summit last month, PM Modi also brought up the problems affecting the Global South. “I am appreciative that South African President Cyril Ramaphosa gave me the chance to exchange ideas with the heads of state from Latin America, Asia, and Africa. At the time, PM Modi stated, “We have concentrated on the interests and concerns of the countries of the Global South.

“This is also a fundamental principle of our G20 chairmanship. We have invited three African countries and other developing countries to be our guest countries in an effort to mainstream the issues facing the Global South. The suggestion to grant the African Union permanent G20 participation has also been made in India. The multipolar world may be strengthened, in my opinion, by the BRICS and all of the friendly states present today, the prime minister continued.
