Union Minister for Youth Affairs Anurag Singh Thakur said that young people are equal stakeholders in the present scenario. While inaugurating the fourth Y20 consultation meeting in Pune, he said that the Y20 Summit presents a unique platform for young minds to share their vision, values, and ideas, and develop solutions and recommendations which will be presented to G20 leadership. India’s role in this Summit is not limited to speaking, it also aims for youth to be heard and actively shape the global agenda.
He mentioned that India is making headlines across the world, for being the world’s fastest-growing large economy. From being among the fragile five economies in 2014, we are now among the first five economies of the world, he added. While talking about the pandemic, he said that India has been the first responder to the humanitarian crisis of COVID-19. He noted that from being a seeker of help, we have become a provider of help and assistance.
