India has solidly emerged as a resilient global power, successfully navigating a series of external shocks, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar asserted.
The triple challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing global conflicts, and climate change have impacted daily lives to an 'unimaginable degree', he said.
Jaishankar noted that India's ability to manage domestic and international challenges has solidified its position among the world's top five economies.
He emphasized the importance of building robust national capabilities, which is the most effective way to de-risk and develop leverage.
The global order is changing with visible shifts in relative power and influence of countries, and the turbulence in the world is currently structural in many ways, he opined.
Jaishankar highlighted the role of business and enterprise in nation-building, saying that the strength and dynamism of Indian businesses have been crucial in the country's progress.
