Abstract

The Group of Twenty (G20) is an international forum that brings together major economies to discuss and coordinate global economic and financial issues. India’s inclusion in the G20 reflects its growing economic stature and influence on the world stage. As the world’s seventh-largest economy and home to a significant portion of the global population, India’s active participation in the G20 has far-reaching implications for global economic governance. India’s contributions to the G20 include shaping the agenda in areas such as sustainable development, climate change, and digital economy, advocating for inclusive and sustainable growth, and engaging in discussions on international trade and investment. India’s challenges in the G20 range from addressing domestic economic concerns like poverty alleviation, infrastructure development, and job creation to effectively balancing national interests with global responsibilities.

India’s active participation in the G20 provides an opportunity for it to shape global economic governance, strengthen diplomatic ties, and advance its national interests. It also presents a platform for India to collaborate with other G20 members on critical issues, foster regional cooperation, and enhance its geopolitical influence. Understanding India’s position in the G20 is essential for comprehending the dynamics of global economic governance and the emerging multipolar world order.
