Prime Minister's visit to Brasilia, Brazil

Published By : Admin | November 12, 2019 | 13:07 IST

I will be visiting Brazil on 13-14 November to attend 11th BRICS Summit. 

I look forward to exchanging views with other BRICS leaders with the aim to further strengthen intra-BRICS cooperation particularly on the theme of the Summit “Economic growth for an innovative future”. During the Summit, the five major economies of the World will aim to significantly strengthen their cooperation in science, technology and innovation; enhance cooperation on digital economy and build mechanisms for counter-terrorism cooperation within the BRICS framework.

Our business and industry play an important role in Intra-BRICS ties. I will be addressing BRICS Business Forum and interacting with BRICS Business Council and New Development Bank. 

I will also meet President Bolsonaro of Brazil to discuss ways to enhance our strategic partnership. Brazil and India share close and ever expanding bilateral relations, including in the spheres of defence, security, trade, agriculture, energy and space. Close cooperation between the two countries in multilateral forums has been a significant aspect of our strategic relationship.

BRICS Summit will also provide me with the opportunity to hold useful bilateral interactions with leaders of other BRICS countries.

India mourns the loss of one of its most distinguished leaders, Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji. Rising from humble origins, he rose to become a respected economist. He served in various government positions as well, including as Finance Minister, leaving a strong imprint on our economic policy over the years. His interventions in Parliament were also insightful. As our Prime Minister, he made extensive efforts to improve people’s lives.

“Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji and I interacted regularly when he was PM and I was the CM of Gujarat. We would have extensive deliberations on various subjects relating to governance. His wisdom and humility were always visible.

In this hour of grief, my thoughts are with the family of Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji, his friends and countless admirers. Om Shanti."
