India's presidency of the G20 spotlighted the Global South and delivered concrete outcomes, including the launch of the Global Biofuels Alliance. Whether through diplomacy, humanitarian aid, or strategic defence, India has crafted a new narrative of influence and self-reliance.

In the last 11 years, India has stepped up as a global leader through impactful initiatives that blend vision with execution. This is reflected across areas such as climate change, energy transition, public health or artificial intelligence. India shows that it has driven conversations and crafted coalitions that put the nation's priorities at the centre of global discourse.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership has anchored these efforts in responsibility and inclusivity, ensuring India's voice resonates across global platforms.

The global leadership prowess of India was reflected during the G20 presidency, where a major highlight was the unanimous adoption of the New Delhi Leaders' Declaration, despite deep divides on global issues like the Ukraine conflict. This achievement underscored India's growing stature as a consensus builder and its ability to lead amid global uncertainty.

Expanding India's global diplomatic presence, since 2014-2024, India has opened 39 new embassies and consulates, bringing the total number to 219.

Some major evacuation missions include, Vande Bharat Mission (2020-22); Operation Devi Shakti, Afghanistan (2021), Operation Ganga, Ukraine (2022); Operation Kaveri , Sudan (2023) and Operation Ajay, Israel amongst others.

Under PM Modi, India's approach has been rooted in responsibility and inclusion, always placing national interest within a wider humanitarian framework. These initiatives have helped India shape a new global order while safeguarding its sovereignty and amplifying its strategic voice.

Absolutely agree! The last decade has seen India's stature grow globally like never before. From G20 success to vaccine diplomacy, we're finally getting the respect we deserve. The evacuation missions show true commitment to citizens abroad 🇮🇳

While foreign policy achievements are commendable, I wish domestic issues like unemployment and inflation got equal attention. The 'double engine' growth narrative doesn't reach ordinary households struggling with daily expenses. Balanced development is needed.

The New Delhi Declaration at G20 was a masterstroke! For the first time, the world listened when India spoke. Our diplomacy has matured so much - remember how we handled the Ukraine crisis while maintaining relations with both sides? 👏

As a small business owner, I've seen real change - UPI payments, easier loans for women entrepreneurs, and reduced corruption at lower levels. The 'Lakhpati Didi' scheme is transforming rural women's lives. More power to our nari shakti!

The article misses mentioning infrastructure growth - highways, airports, metros! I recently drove from Delhi to Dehradun in 5 hours flat - what used to take 8+ hours. That's real vikas we can see and feel. #NewIndia

While achievements are many, we must acknowledge growing polarization too. Development should unite all Indians, not divide us. Hope the next 5 years focus more on social harmony along with economic growth. Jai Hind!
