Abstract: The forthcoming G-20 summit in New Delhi offers India the opportunity to represent the concerns and aspirations of the Global South even while serving as a bridge between the developed and the developing world. A large number of preparatory meetings have been hosted by India in several important domains such as finance, public health, climate change and the digital economy, among others. These promise substantive outcomes at the summit but the key will be practical follow-up. The summit is overshadowed by the sharp divisions among members over the ongoing Ukraine War. It will be a challenge for India to keep the focus on the urgent need for countries to work together on cross-national and cross-domain issues. The summit opens up an expanded diplomatic space for India and raises its regional and international profile.
