S Jaishankar On Canada Situation
"There's a general western issue and to some extent a very specific Canada issue. The world order after 1945 was heavily western and after 1990s it was also very very western. In the last 20 years, there has been a rebalancing, many non-western countries have been very influential. The equation between non-west and west is changing. And, it's not easy to adjust.

"Many more large countries like India or China have points of views, and there will confrontations and it will not be so smooth," he added
"I would say there's some history. In the 1980s, Air India plane flying out of Canada was blown up. Developments in the politics went in a different direction. Canada asked us to subject our High Commissioner to police inquiry and we chose to withdraw him. The license that they give themselves is totally different from the restrictions put on the diplomats," he explained the escalating row with Canada.
As the Hon'ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi settles into his third term, India's global influence continues to expand, reshaping both geopolitical dynamics and economic landscapes. Amidst ongoing conflicts in Europe and West Asia, India has emerged as a responsible global power, adeptly navigating complex international relations and offering leadership.
In this transformative era, the world turns to India for guidance. It is within this context that NDTV proudly presents its flagship event, NDTV World Summit 2024 – The India Century, scheduled for October 21st and 22nd.
Continuing NDTV’s legacy of pioneering media, we will also launch NDTV World at the summit, with the tagline: "Seeing the World from Where India Stands." NDTV World aims to be a leading voice from Asia and India on the global stage.
