New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday made a strong pitch for expansion of the UN Security Council and reforms in all global institutions, asserting that they should reflect the world’s “new realities” as it is nature’s law that those who don’t change with times, lose relevance.

Curtains came down on the G20 Summit on Sunday which was slated for September 9-10 at Bharat Mandapam, in New Delhi’s Pragati Maidan. At the concluding session, Modi handed over the gavel and offered best wishes to Brazil for the next presidency and extended full support to Brazil.

Speaking at the ‘One Future’ session, Modi made a fresh push for reforms in global institutions, including the United Nations. Noting that world is witnessing unimaginable scale and speed in new-generation technology, he cited AI as an example and said G20 countries need to go beyond the “Principles on AI” adopted by the bloc in 2019.
