Thank you for sharing your book about how India is contributing to the global good, @DrSJaishankar. I enjoyed our discussion about India’s G20 Presidency, DPI, health, education, and women’s economic empowerment. India plays a vital role in fostering cross-country collaboration… https://t.co/EUcfGd8ZRP
