Need to expand benefits of digital technology across the globe: PM at G20

The proper use of digital technologies can become a force multiplier in the decades-long global fight against poverty, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday while addressing a session on digital transformation at the G20 summit in Bali.

Underlining the need for expanding the benefits of digital technology across the world, Modi said that during India’s presidency of the G20 — which will commence from December 1 — it will work jointly with G20 partners towards achieving this objective.
