He said the country stood up for its consumer interests, energy choices and national security, stressing that "this is a different India today".
Weighing in on the changing global perceptions of India, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said the world now sees the country as one that is able to "seek its own solutions".
He said the country stood up for its consumer interests, energy choices and national security, stressing that "this is a different India today".
Speaking at the ET Awards 2023 where he was honoured as the 'Reformer of the Year', Mr Jaishankar said, "Today when the world thinks of India, the world actually sees a country which is able to seek its own solutions, speak its own mind, which will stand up, which stood up for our consumer interests when it came to its energy choices, which stood up for its national security when it came to deploying on our northern frontiers and in staying with the Quad. So this is a different India today, and I cannot tell you how proud I am to represent it abroad."
