Union Minister of External Affairs Dr. S. Jaishankar on Tuesday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reshaped the Indian foreign policy with national interest at its core, but at the same time harmonising with global good.
“There is no gainsaying that Prime Minister Modi looms large on the world stage. Definitely, his policies and initiatives have had their impact. But there is also personal respect that influences the attitude of others. Peers perceive him as a quintessentially Indian, and respond accordingly,” he added.
He was speaking at a discussion on a book titled “Modi@20: Dreams Meet Delivery,” at the English and Foreign Languages University campus here. Justice L. Narasimha Reddy was a guest of honour while EFLU Vice-Chancellor Prof. E. Suresh Kumar presided.
