    Donald Trump’s 100,000 H-1B fee will choke U.S. innovation, and turbocharge India’s. By slamming the door on global talent, America pushes the next wave of labs, patents, innovation and startups to Bangalore and Hyderabad, Pune and Gurgaon . India’s finest Doctors, engineers,

    The grand success of #G20India Leaders' Summit, with 100% consensus from all countries on all issues has been possible only because of PM @narendramodi's stature and standing of excellence at the global stage. It is truly an honour for me to be his Sherpa for India’s #G20

    The most complex part of the entire #G20 was to bring consensus on the geopolitical paras (Russia-Ukraine). This was done over 200 hours of non -stop negotiations, 300 bilateral meetings, 15 drafts. In this, I was greatly assisted by two brilliant officers - @NagNaidu08 & @eenamg

    Bhubaneswar first city to achieve 100% COVID vaccination, Puri first city to supply 24x7 drinking water. Congrats @Naveen_Odisha & people of Odisha for these achievements and for also sponsoring our national men & women hockey teams since 2018, who have now reached the semis!

    Tried JioMeet video-conferencing. It’s easy & simple! Better than Zoom. Meetings are encrypted & password protected. Unlimited high definition calls. All data in India. Emerges as a major technological disruptor from India. Will go places in these challenging times.

    Well done ⁦@amitabhk87⁩! Looks lile the IFS lost an ace diplomat when you opted for the IAS! "Negotiated with Russia, China, only last night got final draft," says India's G20 Sherpa on 'Delhi Declaration' consensus. A proud moment for India at G20! ndtv.com/india-news/neg…

    With rise in fossil fuel prices we need to fasten the pace of transition towards electric vehicles. I have been using a #MakeInIndia EV vehicle - Tata Nexon EV . It’s smooth, comfortable, no battery charge anxiety & cost of ownership is cheaper than combustion cars. Move to EVs.
