“During our G20 Presidency, climate was high on our priority. The New Delhi Leaders’ Declaration includes numerous concrete steps on climate action and sustainable development. I look forward to the COP28 taking forward the consensus on these issues,” the Prime Minister said ahead of his visit to Dubai for the World Climate Action Summit which begins on December 1.
