Exuding confidence that India will develop all the requisite national strengths that will make it a leading power in the times to come if the Narendra Modi government retains power, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday said the alternative before the country is a ''return to the failed policies of the past, one that divide our society, diminish our economic achievements and are pessimistic about our prospects''.
About the changes underway in India, he said the country did not give the importance that it should have to manufacturing and technology development in the past. That started to change in 2014 with the Modi Government and has gathered steam over a decade. It is supported by vast improvements in infrastructure, innovation, education and skilling.
While speaking about the latest developments in India's Foreign Policy in Rajya Sabha, Jaishankar spoke about Operation Kaveri which was launched to evacuate Indian nationals from Sudan.
With a historic low of just 17 seats, the Opposition Congress has decided not the field any nominee for the three Rajya Sabha seats elections for which are scheduled on 24 July.
The foreign ministers from the emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) are presently in Cape Town to attend the meeting from 1-2 June.
While Borrell met with Jaishankar at the trade technology talks in Brussels, he was not present at the press conference that followed.
Jaishankar will discuss India-EU relations during his visit as Sweden currently holds the Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
He tweeted, "Foreign Ministers representing G20, EU, ASEAN, AU and G7 gather in Stockholm today.
His visit comes after Israeli Economy Minister Nir Barkat travelled to India this year in April with a large business delegation on a four-day official visit to strengthen bilateral ties in common areas of interest, automotive technologies, and fintech.
