The Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir will also host meetings in the G20 Summit 2023. The G20 Summit is a summit that brings together the world's major economies.
On Thursday, the government set up a five-level high-level committee to coordinate all summits to be held in 2023. After the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir in August 2019, the first major international summit will be held here.
Political parties in the Kashmir Valley have welcomed the move. It is a proud moment not only for the region but for the entire country. The G20 summit is an opportunity for strong countries like France, Britain and Germany to discuss trade plans and prepare a future roadmap for the country.
The Prime Minister is working hard for the development of the Kashmir Valley and this is proved by the G20 summit being held here. BJP state spokesperson Altaf Thakur said that after the abrogation of Article 370, this is the first big summit here, which no one would have thought of even in a dream. There has been a change on the ground in the valley.
