The session started with two stages of qualitative transformation that took place in India, the first stage being the post-cold war era. He highlighted how the country shifted from Idealism to Pragmatism, Non-Alignment to Multi-Alignment and from protective economy to globalization. He pointed out that the second stage took place under Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership where the country aims to play the role of a balancer in global politics by taking an assertive stance in foreign policy. He educated the students about Troika leadership, Ministerial and Sherpa groups and their functions and the fact that G-20 is an informal group.

He pointed out that India, having a paradoxical scenario at global level, has many challenges to face. Existence of pandemic crisis, financial liquidity of the country, negative growth, poverty issues, social inequality, off tracking from SDGs, China’s muscle power, gender inequalities, and climate change were the major challenges highlighted by Prof. Yadav. He expressed the hope that despite the challenges, India will use the Presidency as an opportunity to strengthen its role with its sound technological and public infrastructure. He also opined that India can accelerate the progress of SDGs as sustainability practices are deep-rooted in the country’s culture. Availability of green environment and nuclear energy resources, orientation towards women-led development, multi-alignment with developed countries and promotion of inclusive growth were observed to be the strengths and opportunities available for India. He stressed the need for ‘Sabka Saat Sabka Vikas’ (cohesiveness and inclusiveness) to be reflected on the foreign policy to reach the noble goal of “Vasudaiva Kutumbakam”. Prof. Yadav felt re-oriented diplomacy and global peace are important strategies of India for successful Presidency. In turn, he opined that India would gain recognition, a chance for a seat in UN Security Council and would have the opportunity to present the vision of the North if it can effectively manage the positive perception.

A question-answer session followed the lecture where students from different departments have interacted with the Guest Speaker and posed their queries. Prof. SA Kori, Hon’ble Vice Chancellor, CUAP made the concluding remarks.
