“It is a big proud moment for us as a nation and all of us are stakeholders and therefore we all need to cooperate and make this a huge success,” sources said quoting PM.

Further elaborating on how this brings an opportunity for India to showcase its vast cultural heritage, PM said, “There was a point when everybody would consider India only up to Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru but now we will be able to show the world the unseen India which is beautiful and dynamic yet united.”

The sources also said that the Prime Minister requested all political parties to participate wholly and encourage public partnership and engagement.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday chaired an all-party meeting to underscore the significance of India’s presidency of the G20 and brief the leaders about the government’s approach.

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin and Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik were among those present at the meeting which was held at Rashtrapati Bhavan.
