Jaishankar, who is on a visit to Manipur's capital Imphal, attended an interactive programme held at Classic Grande in the city on Saturday evening.

He tweeted "Delighted to interact with the business community in Imphal today afternoon. Modi Government is giving utmost priority to the development of the North East, including Manipur. It is visible in both resources and attention."

External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar stated that India's G20 presidency will be celebrated at various places across the country, including Manipur.

He said, "Our upcoming Presidency of the G20 will showcase Northeast to the world, with attendant tourism benefits." The interactive programme attended by Jaishankar was hosted jointly by the Ministry of External Affairs and the Confederation of Indian Industries (CII).
