With the world hailing the triumph of Indian democracy in the recentlyheld elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi basked in the global spotlight and batted vigorously for the Global South at the G7 summit dominated by poly-crisis, including the seething conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.

In less than twenty-four hours he spent in the ultraluxe resort fringed by olive trees, Modi showed his trademark energy and diplomatic finesse as he met and networked with the leaders of nearly a dozen countries with his message of working in the spirit of global solidarity in a world polarized by crises and conflict.
