Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a post on X on Monday, praised author and former CEO of NITI Aayog Amitabh Kant in “his effort to write a book on India’s position in G20.
He wrote, “Your effort to write about India’s G20 Presidency and the Summit in 2023 is commendable, giving a lucid perspective on our efforts to further human-centric development in pursuit of a better planet.”
This comes as a response to Kant’s post on X, in which he wrote about his meeting with PM Modi and thanked him for his trust and guidance. He also elucidated PM Modi’s progressive approach with regards to G20.
He wrote, “Honoured to present my book, ‘How India Scaled Mt. G20,’ to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.”
He further added, “It was his progressive vision, global stature, and inclusive leadership style that set both the agenda and the approach to one of the most transformative chapters in India’s diplomatic history. His unequivocal belief in the G20 India team enabled us to be bold and take risks through the seemingly impossible negotiations. I thanked him for his trust and guidance as his G20 Sherpa.”
