United Nations: The Russia-Ukraine War became the fulcrum of the speech of Narendra Modi at the United Nations where he made an apparent reference to the vexed conflict, by saying that the success of humanity lies in collective strengths, not in the battlefield.

Speaking at the United Nations' 'Summit of the Future' in New York, PM Modi reiterated India's commitment to "One Earth, One Family, One Future."

"For India, One Earth, One Family, One Future is a commitment," he said. "The success of humanity lies in our collective strength, not in the battlefield. And for global peace and development, reforms in global institutions are essential. Reform is the key to relevance! Permanent membership of the G20 to the African Union at the New Delhi Summit was an important step in this direction," he said.

Saying that he was representing one-sixth of humanity, Modi added that India has elevated 250 million (25 crore) people out of poverty in the country.

He said, "India has demonstrated that sustainable development can be successful and we are ready to share our success story with the entire Global South."

He also spoke about India's willingness to share its digital public infrastructure with the entire world.

"There is a need for balanced regulation for the safe and responsible use of technology. We need global digital governance, which ensures that national sovereignty and integrity are upheld. Digital public infrastructure should be a bridge, not a barrier. For Global Good, we are ready to share its digital public infrastructure with the entire world," he said.

The Prime Minister further said India will continue to work in thought, words and deeds to protect the rights of all humanity and for global prosperity.
