India has officially passed the G20 presidency to Brazil, signifying Brazil's role as the host of the upcoming 2024 summit.

This momentous handover transpired during a ceremony held at the final session of the G20 summit in New Delhi.

In a symbolic gesture, Indian Prime Minister Modi presented the presidential gavel to Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, evoking applause and recognition from fellow summit participants.

The culmination of the G20 summit in New Delhi, slated to conclude on Sunday, marked a noteworthy occasion for global diplomacy.

Preceding the summit, India orchestrated numerous ministerial meetings, setting the stage for collaborative discussions among world leaders.

Despite diverging perspectives, particularly on the Ukrainian conflict, the summit participants succeeded in reaching a consensus and releasing a joint declaration.

As the G20 calendar unfolds, India is poised to host several more events before the year's end, emphasizing its continued commitment to international cooperation and dialogue.
