Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend his first G20 Summit which is scheduled to begin from November 15. The G20 Summit is being hosted by Australia in the city of Brisbane. Modi has said the importance of global cooperation against black money will be a “key issue” that he will highlight at the Summit.
The summit in Brisbane will also be Narendra Modi’s first meeting with many of the G20 heads of government such as German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande. Modi is expected to have at least 5 bilateral meets on the side-lines of the Summit with leaders like Obama, Abe, Dilma Rouseff whom he had already met and Putin who is travelling to Delhi in December.
Prime Minister Modi is expected to increase his pitch to drum up investments to India building on his ‘Make in India’ theme.
