Many of India’s proposals have been well supported by the G20 bloc and there has been an active engagement, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said after a series of meetings with her counterparts from the influential grouping here. India assumed the year-long presidency of the G20 in December last year and aims to host a leaders’ summit in New Delhi in early September. The G20 is an important forum of the world’s 20 major developed and developing economies.
Sitharaman met her counterparts from the G20 nations on the sidelines of the annual spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in Washington on Thursday. “We were very happy to see that most of India’s proposals have been well supported and there has been an active engagement,” she said.
The minister said discussions at the second meeting of G20 finance ministers and central bank governors under India’s presidency spread over three sessions – the global economy, international financial architecture, sustainable finance, financial sector, financial inclusion, and international taxation. She said the discussions were very intense with a lot of substantive inputs coming from the members.
