New Delhi, June 8 : External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar Thursday said India is now increasingly being perceived by the world, and in particular ‘the Global South', as a “credible” and “effective” development partner. Addressing a press conference to mark nine years of the Narendra Modi-led government, Jaishankar said: “The world, especially the Global South, perceives India as a development partner – as a credible, effective development partner with delivery on the ground.” Ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha election, Jaishankar has been put at the helm of the BJP's month-long campaign aimed at spreading awareness regarding Prime Minister Modi-led Centre's achievements at four out of seven parliamentary constituencies in the national capital. These include New Delhi, South, North West and West.
