PM Modi said this while addressing the seventh meeting of the Governing Council (GC) of NITI Aayog. This was the first physical meeting of the Governing Council since the onset of the pandemic, with the 2021 meeting held via video conferencing. The meeting was attended by 23 chief ministers, 3 lieutenant governors and 2 administrators and Union ministers. The meeting was moderated by defence minister Rajnath Singh.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that Indian states must focus on reducing imports, increasing exports and identifying opportunities for the same in every state. Each state should focus on promoting its trade, tourism and technology through every Indian mission around the world. “We should encourage people to use local goods wherever possible,” he said.
The PM also spoke about India’s G20 presidency in 2023 and called it a unique opportunity to show the world that India is not just Delhi—it is every state and union territory of the country. The PM said India should develop a mass movement around G20 to identify the best talent available in the country.
He also said there should be a dedicated team for G20 in the states to derive the maximum possible benefit from this initiative, NITI Aayog said in a press release.
