External minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday said that India is now more involved in shaping global agenda now than ever before.

In a media briefing to mark 100 days of the second term of Modi government, Jaishankar said, “Collaborations have become more salient parts of India’s foreign policy. Connections between national security and foreign policy. Co-relation between national security goals and foreign policy goals have grown stronger.”

He also said that India’s appetite to shape global agenda is more than what it was ever before.

“I think today if you look at the big debates at multilateral forums – G20, BRICS, you will see that the Indian voice, Indian views are today heard much more clearly.”
