Prime Minister Narendra Modi today (Friday, November 21) left for Johannesburg, South Africa, where he will participate in the 20th G20 Leaders’ Summit to be held from 21 to 23 November 2025. This conference is being hosted by South Africa and the special thing is that for the first time the G20 summit is going to be organized in the African continent. Also, this is the fourth consecutive time that the G20 conference is being held in the Global South.
Leaving for a visit on the invitation of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Prime Minister Modi said that this conference is important in many ways. He reminded that under India’s G20 presidency (2023), the African Union was given permanent membership of the G20 and now holding this summit in Africa further strengthens that historic step.
