“The more you will understand about India, the better you will be able to tell new generations and NRIs in your countries.

“Many Indian-origin people are contributing in building the nations they are living in now. I would appeal that a documentary should be made about the struggle of such people, whose role was making their present countries acknowledge them. We need to understand their struggle and courage to tell our new generations,” Modi added
He also requested that every Pravasi Bharatiya should know about India’s progress. India has also taken the presidency of G20 which is a great opportunity to show India’s sustainability goals and become an example of Jan Bhagidari for the world.
He further added that India got the opportunity to host the G20 summit where leaders of top 20 countries will assemble at one stage. “But, let me tell you that, India will use this occasion to make it as a ‘Jan Bhagidari’. Our idea is to take it beyond diplomatic event and to aid on a new thought and practice in G20 groups,” the PM said.
