Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has said there must be "a foreign policy for Viksit Bharat" amid a changing landscape, according to a PTI report.
In his address at the launch of India’s World magazine in New Delhi on Sunday, he said, “When we speak about changing foreign policy, if there is talk of a post-Nehruvian construct, it should not be treated as a political attack.”
Jaishankar said that on the world stage, India is increasingly becoming “a player of consequence.” He said the number of Indians working abroad is going to “grow dramatically” in the coming years, PTI reports.
“We are going to see an explosion in mobility,” the Indian minister added.
“My sense for a foreign policy ahead would be to think big, think long, but to think smart,” PTI quoted the minister as saying.
