G20: International Financial Architecture Working Group Meeting In Goa Starts Today
The third meeting of the International Financial Architecture Working Group (IFAWG) of G20 will be held in Goa between June 5 to 7, an official said on Sunday. He said the meeting will explore ways to improve the international financial architecture and address the pressing issues faced by the global economy.
The IFAWG is one of the important work streams under the G20 Finance Track with a focus on strengthening international financial architecture.
"The 3rd IFAWG meeting in Goa is a crucial opportunity for G20 to advance the reforms of the International Financial Architecture and address the global challenges of the 21st century. Goa is proud to host this important group and contribute to global financial stability and development," said Sanjit Rodrigues, the Nodal Officer (G20). He said that during India's G20 Presidency, this Working Group has already met twice before.
“The first meeting was held in Chandigarh on January 30-31, 2023 while the second meeting was held in Paris on March 30 and 31. These meetings discussed issues about strengthening multilateral development banks and how to address challenges associated with debt,” he added. A Goa government spokesman said the IFAWG is a forum that brings together finance ministers and central bank governors from G20 countries to discuss issues related to international financial architecture. The group was established in 1999 as part of the G20 process and has since played an important role in shaping global economic policy.
Delhi HC To Pronounce Order On Sisodia's Interim Bail Plea
The Delhi High Court will on Monday pronounce its order on AAP leader Manish Sisodia's plea seeking interim bail for six weeks in a money laundering case arising from the alleged excise policy scam. The former Delhi deputy chief minister has sought release on a temporary basis on the ground of being the sole caretaker of his ailing wife. His plea for regular bail in the matter is pending before the high court.
Sisodia, who was arrested on March 9, is currently in judicial custody in the case lodged by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The verdict on the interim bail plea will be pronounced by Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma.
It was reserved on Saturday when Sisodia's lawyer had claimed that pursuant to the court's directions passed on Friday, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader was taken in custody to meet his wife earlier in the day but the latter's health condition deteriorated and she was taken to be the LNJP Hospital before he could reach home. The ED has opposed the plea for interim bail on the grounds of possibility of evidence tampering.
