This is the first state visit of an Indian President to this country. The Governor General of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, H.E. Ms Dame Susan Dougan, Prime Minister, Dr the Hon. Ralph E. Gonsalves and other dignitaries received the President at the Argyle International Airport.\u00a0The President was accorded a guard of honour at the Airport on arrival.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday (May 19, 2022), the President commenced his engagements by visiting the\u00a0Government House where he met Governor General Dame Susan Dougan and Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves. During his meeting with the two leaders, the President thanked both of them for the warm and gracious hospitality extended to him in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. They discussed strengthening cooperation between India and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in the fields of Information Technology, health, education, tourism and culture and in the multilateral fora.<\/p>\n<p>Following the meeting, President Kovind, Governor General Dame Susan Dougan and Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves witnessed the signing and exchange of an Agreement for the Exchange of Information and Assistance in Collection of Taxes and an MoU on\u00a0Refurbishment of\u00a0\u00a0Old Calder Community Centre.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, the President visited the Botanical Garden in Kingstown where he planted a sapling of the Indian White Sandalwood and witnessed a cultural performance consisting of a blend of Vincentian and Indian culture.<\/p>\n<p>In the next engagement, the President addressed the special sitting of the House Assembly of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines on the topic\u00a0\u201cIndia and\u00a0Saint Vincent and the Grenadines\u00a0\u2013 Towards an Inclusive World Order\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the occasion, the President said that\u00a0we live in a world characterized by multiple linkages among nation-States and people across the world. Today\u2019s closely connected world has brought immense benefits to people around the globe through opening up of new markets, new educational and employment opportunities, greater access to information and new vistas for countries to engage with the outside world.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that\u00a0this globalized world order has also brought its own set of challenges. Climate Change, political conflicts threatening international peace and security, cross-border terrorism, supply-chain disruptions \u2013 are some of the major global challenges that impact us all. He said that nation states would have to look beyond their narrow self-interests in tackling these challenges for the well-being of our future generations.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that\u00a0multilateralism is more relevant in today\u2019s inter-connected and interdependent world than it was at any time in our shared history. Multilateralism ought to be used as an instrument to promote strong, sustainable, balanced, and inclusive growth in all nation-states. However, for multilateralism to remain relevant and effective, institutions need to be reformed.\u00a0Structures and institutions that emerged after the two world wars focused on one major issue \u2013 that of preventing another world war. To tackle the complex issues of today, the new world order that we seek to build, is to be an inclusive world order, where every country can express its legitimate interests. This can only happen by way of an expanded and better-designed representation system in key global institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that our objective in advocating for an inclusive world order is to promote a universal, rules-based, open, transparent, predictable, non-discriminatory, and equitable multilateral system. The need of the hour is, therefore, reform of global institutions, with the UN Security Council at its core, to reflect the contemporary global reality.\u00a0\u00a0He noted that on this issue, India and St. Vincent and the Grenadines share common interest, approach and understanding.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that the Government of India\u2019s\u00a0motto is \u201cSabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas,\u201d i.e., together with all, development for all, with everyone&#8217;s trust and with everyone\u2019s efforts. This also demonstrates India\u2019s approach in the global arena which means India believes in an inclusive world order that is sensitive to legitimate interests and concerns of every country and region, irrespective of its size or wealth.\u00a0\u00a0He said that India thinks\u00a0and acts for the future of the entire humanity. It has remained steadfast in its commitment to share its experience, knowledge and skills acquired in its journey of development, with fellow developing countries. He expressed confidence that India and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines would continue to work closely together in advancing these shared objectives for an inclusive world order.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, the President visited the Calder Road in Kingstown where he addressed the Indian community and Friends of India.<\/p>\n<p>In his brief remarks on the occasion, the President said that Indian Diaspora and Indians living in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines reflect India\u2019s rich diversity, cultural heritage and traditions and India is proud of them and their achievements. He said that India&#8217;s developmental partnership with Saint Vincent and the Grenadines\u00a0is based on the spirit of universal brotherhood. India wants to support them in building a stronger Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, with infrastructure projects that add value to the well-being of the people.\u00a0 He urged all of them to connect with the new India, its immense energy and rapid economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, the President renamed Calder Road to &#8216;India Drive\u2019 by unveiling of a plaque in the presence of Prime Minister\u00a0Gonsalves, members of Indian community and other dignitaries.<\/p>\n<p>In the final engagement of the day, the President attended a banquet hosted by the Governor General of\u00a0Saint Vincent and the Grenadines\u00a0at Government House.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"entry-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newsmakhani.com\/pm-addresses-yuva-shivir-organised-by-shree-swaminarayan-temple\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">READ\u00a0 MORE :-\u00a0 PM addresses \u2018Yuva Shivir\u2019 organised by Shree Swaminarayan Temple<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0915\u094d\u0937\u092e\u093e \u0915\u0930\u0947\u0902, \u092f\u0939 \u0938\u092e\u093e\u091a\u093e\u0930 \u0906\u092a\u0915\u0947 \u0905\u0928\u0941\u0930\u094b\u0927 \u0915\u0940 \u092d\u093e\u0937\u093e \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0909\u092a\u0932\u092c\u094d\u0927 \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 \u0939\u0948\u0964 \u0915\u0943\u092a\u092f\u093e \u092f\u0939\u093e\u0901 \u0926\u0947\u0916\u0947\u0902\u0964 Addresses special sitting of the house assembly of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines; and graces Indian community reception in Kingstown Reform of global institurions\u00a0is the need of the hour to reflect the contemporary global reality: President Kovind Indian and Saint [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":149451,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[109,122],"tags":[56731,38919,85307],"class_list":{"0":"post-149450","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-national","8":"category-news","9":"tag-news-makhani","10":"tag-president-of-india","11":"tag-saint-vincent"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149450","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149450"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149450\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/149451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
