Prime Minister Modi Embarks On Historic Three-Nation Diplomatic Mission To G7 Summit
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has commenced a significant three-nation diplomatic tour that will take him to Canada for the G7 Summit, followed by state visits to Cyprus and Croatia. The Prime Minister emphasized that this international engagement represents an opportunity to express gratitude to nations that have consistently supported India's efforts against cross-border terrorism while building broader global consensus on counter-terrorism measures. In his departure statement, Modi highlighted the strategic importance of the G7 Summit being held in Kananaskis, Canada, where he will participate at the invitation of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. The Prime Minister described the summit as a valuable platform for exchanging perspectives on urgent global challenges while advocating for the priorities and concerns of the Global South nations. The tour serves multiple diplomatic objectives, with Modi particularly emphasizing the importance of thanking partner countries for their unwavering support in India's ongoing battle against terrorism that crosses international borders. He stressed the need to foster greater global understanding and cooperation in addressing terrorism across all its various forms and manifestations, positioning this as a central theme of his international engagements. Modi's itinerary includes a visit to Cyprus on June 15-16, responding to an invitation from President Nikos Christodoulides. The Prime Minister characterized Cyprus as both a close friend and a strategically important partner within the Mediterranean region and the European Union framework. He outlined ambitious plans to strengthen the historically rooted relationship between the two nations by expanding cooperation across multiple sectors including trade, investment, security, and technology while promoting enhanced people-to-people connections. Following the G7 Summit, Modi will proceed to Croatia for meetings with both President Zoran Milanovic and Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic. The Prime Minister noted that India and Croatia share cultural connections spanning several centuries, providing a strong foundation for renewed diplomatic engagement. This visit to Croatia holds particular historical significance as it marks the first time an Indian Prime Minister has visited the Balkan nation. Modi expressed confidence that this groundbreaking visit would create new pathways for bilateral cooperation in areas of mutual benefit and shared interest, potentially transforming the relationship between the two countries. The comprehensive tour reflects India's expanding global diplomatic footprint and its commitment to strengthening relationships with both traditional allies and emerging partners. The timing of the visit, particularly the emphasis on counter-terrorism cooperation, comes as India continues to face security challenges and seeks broader international support for its security concerns. The G7 Summit participation underscores India's growing role in addressing global challenges despite not being a permanent member of the group. Modi's attendance demonstrates the international community's recognition of India's importance in tackling worldwide issues and representing the interests of developing nations. The diplomatic mission also highlights India's strategy of diversifying its international partnerships beyond traditional allies, with Cyprus and Croatia representing important gateways to the Mediterranean and European markets respectively. These relationships could prove crucial for India's economic and strategic interests in these regions. Through this tour, Modi aims to reinforce India's position as a responsible global power committed to international cooperation while securing support for the nation's security priorities and expanding economic opportunities for mutual benefit.

Popularity, policy, and impact: The Narendra Modi model after 11 years
File photo: PM Modi (Photo: ANI) By: Durgesh Upadhyay From 2014 to 2025, Prime Minister Narendra Modi 's government has undertaken several major policy decisions, developmental initiatives, and impactful global engagements. Let us reflect on some of the key highlights from these 11 years. Economic reforms and infrastructure development One of the most significant reforms was the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) in 2017, establishing a unified tax regime under the concept of One Nation, One Tax. This was a revolutionary change that streamlined the taxation system and strengthened the working dynamics of businesses across the country. To boost industrial investment and position India as a global manufacturing hub, the Make in India campaign was launched. This initiative quickly gained nationwide momentum and engaged citizens across all strata. Although some criticized the execution process, its impact was widely recognized. Simultaneously, the Digital India initiative built a comprehensive digital infrastructure aimed at expanding internet access, promoting digital payments, and bringing government services online. This ambitious project transformed the way citizens interact with technology, and today, even street vendors and rickshaw pullers are commonly seen using platforms like Paytm and PhonePe. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 21st Century Skills Start with Confident Communication Planet Spark Learn More Undo In terms of infrastructure, the Modi government has significantly advanced India's core sectors. Noteworthy developments include the bullet train project, the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, and modernization of the railway network. The number of expressways in India has increased substantially, transforming national connectivity. Social welfare and public schemes On the social front, the Ujjwala Yojana provided free LPG connections to millions of underprivileged women, improving household health and hygiene. This initiative brought transformative changes to the lives of countless families. In the healthcare domain, the Ayushman Bharat scheme emerged as the world's largest government-funded health insurance program, providing free medical treatment to millions. This marked a significant step toward improving healthcare access for the underprivileged. Modi's vision has earned praise particularly for its focus on the poor, farmers, youth, and women empowerment. While political criticism is inevitable, it is clear that many of the government's schemes were designed with the common citizen at the center. A key example is the PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi, under which ₹6,000 is transferred annually to farmers' bank accounts. This scheme not only provided direct financial support but also eliminated middlemen through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), ensuring transparency. Another landmark initiative is the Swachh Bharat Mission , under which millions of toilets were built across the country, significantly reducing open defecation and fostering a national mindset shift toward cleanliness. Foreign policy and national security India's global stature also saw a major rise under Modi's leadership. India has played an influential role in global forums such as G20, BRICS, and the QUAD. Prime Minister Modi has earned respect on the international stage, and the perception of India and Indians has notably improved worldwide. In terms of national security, India demonstrated its capability to respond decisively to threats. The 2016 surgical strike and the 2019 Balakot airstrike reflected a bold shift in defense strategy. Under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, self-reliance in defense production has been prioritized. Indigenous manufacturing of weapons and equipment, such as the supersonic BrahMos missile now being produced in Lucknow, is a testament to this progress. Constitutional and political reforms The government has enacted several historic constitutional and political changes over the last 11 years. The most prominent was the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019, which revoked Jammu & Kashmir's special status and reorganized it into two Union Territories — a move widely regarded as historic. By criminalizing triple talaq, the Modi government upheld gender equality and offered significant relief to Muslim women, a decision that sparked much discussion and praise. Another controversial but impactful move was the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), which was introduced to provide citizenship to persecuted minorities from neighboring countries. Despite the political debates it stirred, the policy marked a major shift in India's approach to citizenship. Environment, energy, and global humanitarianism In the fields of energy and the environment, the Modi government has made substantial strides. It led the establishment of the International Solar Alliance (ISA), positioning India as a global leader in renewable energy. Additionally, the widespread distribution of LED bulbs under government schemes has significantly reduced electricity consumption. During the COVID-19 pandemic, India launched the world's largest vaccination campaign, effectively managing vaccine distribution through the digital platform CoWIN. India also supplied vaccines to various countries, reflecting a commitment to global humanitarian efforts. Conclusion Over the past 11 years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government has sought to redefine India's path across economic, technological, social, and global spheres. While these policies have attracted both support and criticism, it is undeniable that the Modi era has brought about a significant transformation in India's political landscape and governance style.
