Our public health response has been appreciated by the World Health Organization (WHO). The PM had also personally directed our heads of missions to extend all possible assistance to our nationals stranded abroad. The decision of the G-20 on debt service suspension for developing countries, which India fully supported, reflects this people-centric approach. At the virtual Global Vaccine Summit, the PM highlighted how India’s contribution to the global response in terms of sharing medicines was guided by our philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbkum. And in the process, we have been successful in elevating India’s profile as a constructive and dependable actor on the global stage.
