Prime Minister Narendra Modi, surrounded by esteemed world leaders such as US President Joe Biden, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and South Africa President Cyril Ramaphosa, presented the idea of launching a G20 Satellite Mission for Environment and Climate Observation.

A Vision for the Global South

Prime Minister Modi’s proposal underscores India’s commitment to leveraging technology and collaboration for the greater good, particularly in assisting countries of the global south.

With a particular emphasis on extending this valuable information to countries in the Global South, India’s proposal embodies the spirit of international solidarity and cooperation.

An Inclusive Invitation to the G-20

In his address at the G20 Leaders Summit, Prime Minister Modi extended an open invitation to all G-20 member countries to join this transformative initiative.
