ET GBS: India to drive digital, green agenda at G20

India aims to become the first country in the world to industrialise without carbonising, G20 sherpa Amitabh Kant said at the ET Global Business Summit on Friday. The country’s G20 presidency, which India assumed in December 2022, will allow it to drive twin global objectives of digital transformation and going green, thus reshaping history. India is aiming for decisive and action-oriented G20 meetings under its presidency toward this end, he said.

“India takes over the G20 presidency when the world is facing several challenges. While every challenge is an opportunity, India’s priority for the G20 will be to drive digital transformation and go green,” Kant said while addressing a session at the ET GBS.
