Given that India has become the world’s most populous nation and also boasts the fastest-growing economy and largest democracy, it is crucial to acknowledge its value and give it the UN representation it rightfully deserves. India’s enormous contributions to UN peacekeeping operations highlight its status as an accountable world citizen.
“India’s cultural richness, innovation, and diversity make it a potent force for positive change,” remarked Melwyn Williams Chirayath (Chairman and the Founder of the Indian Diaspora Global). Let’s work together to make sure that this colourful tapestry plays its proper role in guiding world affairs.
Melwyn Williams Chirayath notes how India is a fervent supporter of UN peacekeeping operations, underscoring their crucial function in maintaining global stability and security. India has also been a steadfast supporter of human rights, especially those of women, children, and those with disabilities. India has actively participated in UN climate change initiatives, most notably through its crucial involvement in the 2015 Paris Agreement negotiations. The “Panchamrit strategy” has been adopted by India in an effort to attain net zero emissions by 2070.
