New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi called upon G-20 countries to make India their partner in economic recovery and resilient global supply chains.

Speaking at the G-20 Summit’s inaugural session on economy and Covid in Rome on Saturday, he touched on India’s economic reforms and its willingness to adopt a common global tax on corporations to urge the world’s top 20 economies, accounting for 80 per cent of the global GDP, to view India as their prime investment destination. The PM said emergency use authorisation (EUA) to India’s Covaxin vaccine by the World Health Organisation (WHO) would help facilitate the “process of expedited vaccination.”

He said India was ready to produce over 5 billion Covid vaccine doses by the end of next year to help the world fight the pandemic.
