'Success Of Humanity Lies In Collective Strengths, Not In Battlefield': PM Modi At UN's 'Summit Of The Future'
PM Narendra Modi said that he was representing one-sixth of the humanity and added that India has elevated 25 crore people out of poverty in the country.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday made an apparent reference to the Russia-Ukraine War, by saying that the success of humanity lies in collective strengths, not in the battlefield.
Speaking at the United Nations' 'Summit of the Future' in New York, PM Modi called for reforms in global organisations and reiterated India's commitment to "One Earth, One Family, One Future."
"Success of Humanity lies in our collective strength, not in the battlefield. And for global peace and development, reforms in global institutions are essential. Reform is the key to relevance! Permanent membership of the G20 to the African Union at the New Delhi Summit, was an important step in this direction," PM Modi said.
Modi said that he was representing one-sixth of the humanity and added that India has elevated 250 million (25 crore) people out of poverty in the country.
"We have demonstrated that Sustainable Development can be Successful. And we are ready to share this experience of our success with the entire Global South," he said.
He also said that India is ready to share its digital public infrastructure with the entire world.
"There is a need for balanced regulation for the safe and responsible use of Technology. We need global digital governance, which ensures that national sovereignty and integrity are upheld. Digital Public Infrastructure should be a Bridge, not a Barrier! For Global Good, India is ready to share its digital public infrastructure with the entire world," he said.
"For India, One Earth, One Family, One Future is a commitment," he added.
He said that the commitment is also reflected in the country's initiatives such as "One Earth, One Health”, and "One Sun, One World, One Grid”. India will continue to work in thought, words and deeds to protect the rights of all humanity and for global prosperity, he added.
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and reaffirmed India's support for the Palestinian people. Modi reiterated India's support for the Palestinian people and expressed deep concern at the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
PM Modi is in New York on the second leg of his three-day US visit and met the leaders on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session. Modi reached New York on Sunday after attending the Quad Leaders’ Summit hosted by President Joe Biden in Wilmington, Delaware on Saturday. In Wilmington, he also held bilateral talks with Biden, Japan's Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
