India ‘Came Through Global Shocks Solidly’: Jaishankar Amid West Asia Conflict

Jaishankar said rising global turbulence is pushing India to build stronger national capabilities, trusted partnerships and diverse sourcing.

  • On Saturday, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar addressed the 15th convocation ceremony of IIM Raipur, asserting that India has emerged solidly from recent global shocks in an apparent reference to the ongoing West Asia military conflict.
  • Jaishankar identified the triple challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and global conflicts as the decade's primary disruptions, noting that the global order is experiencing structural turbulence.
  • Building robust national capabilities is the most effective way to de-risk and develop leverage, Jaishankar said, with India expressing this self-reliance through the "Atmanirbhar Bharat" initiative covering food, health, and energy security.
  • India is now among the top five economies, Jaishankar said, with graduating students as beneficiaries of a solid decade of progress as the country pursues the goal of "Viksit Bharat."
  • Foreign policy is increasingly focused on expanding market access and securing critical resources, Jaishankar added, with promoting "Brand India" globally essential to establishing the country as a reliable partner.
