For India, One Earth, One Family, One Future Is A Commitment: Modi At UN
NEW YORK, NY (ANI) – Asserting that India is committed to protecting the interests of humanity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 23 said that ‘One earth, One Family and One future’ is a commitment of the country.
In his address at the UN’s ‘Summit of The Future’ PM Modi said India has elevated 250 million people out of poverty and shown that sustainable development can be successful.
“For India, One Earth, One Family, One Future is a commitment. This commitment is also reflected in our initiatives such as ‘One Earth, One Health’, and ‘One Sun, One World, One Grid’. India will continue to work in thought, words and deeds to protect the interests of all humanity and for global prosperity.”
He called for balanced regulation at a global level for safe and responsible use of technology. “Digital Public Infrastructure should be a bridge, not a barrier. For global good, India is ready to share its digital infrastructure with the entire world,” he said.
The Prime Minister expressed India’s willingness to share its experiences of success with the Global South. He said that the success of humanity lies in “collective strength” and not the battlefield.
He said terrorism is a serious threat to global peace. “While on one hand, terrorism continues to be a serious threat to global peace and security, on the other hand, cyber, maritime and space are emerging as new theatres of conflict. On all these issues, I will stress that global action must match global ambition,” he said.
At the UN Summit of the Future, world leaders adopted a Pact for the Future that included a Global Digital Compact and a Declaration on Future Generations.
The Pact covers a broad range of themes, including peace and security, sustainable development, climate change, digital cooperation, human rights, gender, youth and future generations, and the transformation of global governance.
