Over 100 Young Officers Given Opportunity To Work For G20 Summit
During an exclusive interview with India Today, the Special Secretary shared insights into the extensive preparations for the forthcoming G20 summit.
“The Prime Minister (Narendra Modi) gave this idea to take more than 100 young civil servants from different cadres and services and give them an opportunity to work for the G20 so that they learn and it creates a capacity in the country. So, almost 140 young officers from all over the country have joined and the induction programme happened,” Pardeshi said.
He further added the country had been preparing for the mega event for a year, conducting nearly 200 meetings in 60 locations to ensure a seamless execution.
Pardeshi emphasises that the Indian presidency has been ambitious and outcome-oriented, with hopes for an agreed joint communique, or ‘Delhi Declaration’, from the summit.
