New Delhi, April 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Raisina Dialogue’s seventh session today. The dialogue which will take place over three days from April 25 to April 27, will feature European Commission President Ursula Von Der Leyen as the principal guest, according to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).
India’s premier foreign policy gathering is the Raisina Dialogue. The Raisina Hills, where India’s seat of power is located, inspired the Shangri-La Dialogue, which was held in Singapore and was co-hosted by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) and the Observer Research Foundation.
“Raisina Dialogue 2022 will have around 100 sessions with over 210 speakers from 90 countries. There will be side events that will be hosted in Berlin and Washington. Raisina young fellows programme will also be conducted on the sidelines of this main conference,” said MEA Spokesperson, Arindam Bagchi.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the dialogue was held virtually last year. This year, it will be held in person.
