Beginning May 22, a three-day meeting will be held in Jammu and Kashmir’s Srinagar. The special status of J&K was revoked in 2019, and since then it has been the subject of controversies and hostilities. China has already boycotted the meeting to be held in Srinagar.
Currently, Jammu and Kashmir is under a three-tier security fold as this is the first major international event to take place there in years.
Theme of G20 Summit 2023:
The official site of G20 Summit explains, “The theme of India’s G20 Presidency – “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” or “One Earth · One Family · One Future” – is drawn from the ancient Sanskrit text of the Maha Upanishad. Essentially, the theme affirms the value of all life – human, animal, plant, and microorganisms – and their interconnectedness on the planet Earth and in the wider universe.
The theme also spotlights LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment), with its associated, environmentally sustainable and responsible choices, both at the level of individual lifestyles as well as national development, leading to globally transformative actions resulting in a cleaner, greener and bluer future.”

The G20 summit is expected to bring thousands of delegates and visitors to India. This will be a major boost for the Indian economy and will help promote tourism and investment in the country.
