United Nations Development Programme's Administrator, Achim Steiner highlighted India's G20 presidency and welcomed priorities that New Delhi set during its leadership.Speaking at the UN, Steiner said that he will be travelling to India in a couple of weeks to attend the G20 Finance Central Bank Governors meeting."I think it is fair to say that India's G 20 presidency, following Indonesia's leadership through 2021, is a critical moment where key decisions that the multilateral system can then transact, can be brokered, can be created, not least a response that deals with the current financing dramas that are unfolding before our very eyes," the UNDP administrator said."So we have very high expectations, and certainly, I welcome the priorities that India has set during its presidency and UNDP feels extremely valued in the advice and the input we are providing. In fact, in a couple of weeks, I will be travelling to India for the G20 Finance Central Bank Governors meeting," he added.India's first G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting will be held from 23-25 February in Bengaluru, Karnataka, according to the G20's press statement.Earlier, in December, India hosted the first G20 Finance and Central Bank Deputies Meeting in Bengaluru, Karnataka, under the co-chairship of Secretary, Economic Affairs, Shri Ajay Seth and Deputy Governor, Reserve Bank of India, Michael Patra.The meeting saw an enthusiastic gathering of over 160 foreign delegates including Deputies from G20 member countries, invitee countries, and International Organisations.
