Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to participate in the high-level meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in New York this September, as detailed in the preliminary schedule released by Assembly President Dennis Francis’s office.
According to the program made available on Monday, Prime Minister Modi is likely to deliver his address during the afternoon session on 26 September.
Following his speech, both Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Nepal’s Prime Minister are also likely to speak.
This marks Prime Minister Modi’s fifth address at the Assembly during a week when global leaders, including presidents and prime ministers, gather at the UN headquarters for their annual discussions.
Notably, during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, he participated in the meeting remotely.
In June of the previous year, Modi visited the UN to commemorate the International Day of Yoga, an initiative he launched during his first address in 2014.
However, he did not attend the high-level meeting in September of that year.
The high-level meeting serves as a platform for world leaders to outline their international policies and comment on significant global developments.
While officials closely monitor speeches, leaders engage in essential behind-the-scenes work through numerous bilateral meetings and discussions across various forums.
In past September meetings, numerous international leaders have sought to hold discussions with Prime Minister Modi.
He typically delivers his speeches in Hindi, accompanied by a simultaneous translation into the six official languages of the UN.
The schedule may change, and organizers might adjust the timing of Prime Minister Modi’s address.
His speech is currently slated for the window between 3 PM and 6 PM New York time, translating to the early hours of 27 September in India, between 12:30 AM and 3:30 AM.
