NEW DELHI: India's Brics presidency has yielded over 50 tangible and practical outcomes, including frameworks and action plans, across the four priority pillars of resilience, innovation, cooperation and sustainability, official sources said ahead of the summit that begins Saturday.According to Indian authorities, the takeaways for India include an unequivocal condemnation of terrorism and commitment to combat it in all its forms and manifestations, along with a consensus for reform of institutions of global governance, strengthened multilateralism and support for India's UNSC membership bid.While there was still no clarity about the summit culminating in a unified declaration because of differences between UAE and Iran on the West Asia situation, govt sources said they were confident of a constructive outcome because of the support received by India's chairship.The foreign minister-level meeting had earlier ended without a consensual statement because of the discord over West Asia."With engagement spanning diverse sectors, 400 meetings during the year, India's chairship has demonstrated strong convening and consensus-building strength. Outcomes helped people of Brics countries, including women, farmers and entrepreneurs," said an official.

Sources said India had emerged as a strong voice of Global South and had a role in ensuring its perspectives and aspirations were reflected in the emerging global order. The summit will begin with PM Narendra Modi chairing a session on strengthening multilateralism.

Govt believes India has emerged as a bridge builder, positioning Brics as a platform for dialogue and constructive cooperation, as reflected in the consensus documents of ministerial/heads of agency meetings.According to govt, the presidency was a whole-of-nation effort, bringing together Centre, states, institutions, industry, academia, youth, civil society and communities, with events held in more than 30 cities."India's chairship has highlighted its rich heritage and culture, people-centric innovations, development experience and home-grown solutions as contributions to shared progress and cooperation," added an official.
