India’s G20 presidency set path for world, says World Bank President Ajay Banga

World Bank President Ajay Banga has appreciated India's G20 Presidency and said the country has set a path for the world during its tenure.

He also lauded that the G20 declaration was anonymously adopted by all G20 nations.

“I consider the fact that there was a declaration, a tribute to the fact that the G20 leadership found a way to give and take and negotiate and find a right way to agree and set a path for the world. The world is watching, the G20 has got the developed world and the developing countries,” Banga was quoted as saying by ANI.

Banga emphasised that challenges will always exist but India had shown the way by working out a consensus.

He added, “80% of the world’s GDP was sitting in the room. If they would not agree that would not give a good message. I actually compliment India, its leadership and the G 20 leaders for being able to make sure that a terrific declaration comes out. There will always be challenges.”

“No 20 countries will agree on everything. People will have to look after their national interests. But I am optimistic by the mood I saw in that room” he told the news agency.

India hosted the two-day G20 New Delhi Summit in the national capital over the weekend.
