#India has advanced significantly on many fronts and houses the potential to leapfrog to a higher stage of development. But it is critical to enhance the nation’s competitiveness for long term private sector efficiency— @kautiliya and I write in @BWBusinessworld

We must break the boundaries, move from thinking and working in silos to agile environments and bold #ClimateAction to address the #ClimateCrisis. Take a breath of fresh air, the change starts with you, here at #COP27. A pleasure to join the @ResilienceFron1 Pavilion launch.

2️⃣ days left to the official Opening of #COP27 with over 40.000 expected delegates. While all come #TogetherForImplementation, some others must stop the backsliding towards re-embracing fossil fuels.

[Ovais Sarmad @OvaisSarmad]

Multilateralism lies at the heart of our common agenda. As we step ahead into the Decade of Action, we must work together as a global family to achieve the goals that we have set out for ourselves including the 1.5°C target of the #Parisagreement.
Happy 77th #UNDay!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Our way of life – based on producing, consuming, discarding & polluting -has led to the planetary emergency we face.

Now is the time to transform our relationship with nature.

But we must avoid empty promises. We need to match commitments with credible and verifiable actions.

My oped piece in todays TOI:
Successful cities are fundamental to a successful nation. The challenge for Indian States is to use urbanization as an instrument of growth, job creation and elimination of poverty. https://t.co/JtGRYV0N9c
