A fractured G7 and India's strategic turn

A fractured G7 and India's strategic turn

First Post2 days ago
While the G7 grappled with internal discord and diminishing purpose, PM Modi's emphasis on inclusive development, Global South priorities, and equitable energy transitions gave the Kananaskis summit a broader relevance read more
'In an uncertain world, partnership is our strength and cooperation our compass.' Prime Minister Narendra Modi's words at the 2025 G7 Summit in Kananaskis, Canada, did not merely reflect India's aspirations; they underlined the strategic paradox at the heart of the gathering—a summit that showcased a world short on coordination, conviction, and coherence. It seemed to reflect that those powers that matter are transfixed by the geopolitical gyrations—especially of the last six months—into relative inaction.

What should have been a moment of democratic resolve against converging crises—war, climate, poverty, debt, terror, and technological disruption—instead revealed a G7 priding itself on being the directorate of the world and flag-bearer of the Western liberal order, grappling with internal dissonance and shrinking geopolitical heft and strategic will for development cooperation with the Global South.
The absence of a joint communiqué—the first since 2018—was no procedural glitch but a symptom of deeper dysfunction. The contrast with 2024 was stark. That year's summit in Italy had produced real global public good outcomes: a $70 billion World Bank financing commitment, forward momentum on IMF quota reform, and concrete pledges on climate finance and debt relief. In Kananaskis, however, the grand table remained undecorated by such policy fruit. Despite the physical presence of the heads of the IMF, the World Bank, and the UN, there was no progress on Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)-related support, debt relief for developing countries' unsustainable $29 trillion public debt, climate finance, and technology.
The only watered-down reference to global solidarity on these issues was a discussion the G7 had on the importance of building coalitions of partners—including the private sector, development finance institutions, and Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs)—to drive inclusive economic growth and sustainable development. There was no reference to the SDGs themselves or to developing countries, no fresh financial pledges for energy transition, no reaffirmation of the $100 billion climate finance goal, no follow-up on the Bridgetown Initiative on debt relief, and no joint plan on green tech partnerships with the Global South.
The silence reflected the uncomfortable reality of the US—having withdrawn from the Paris Climate Treaty, cut aid, and even resisted sustainable development language in UN forums. With Europe distracted by inflation and war-related instability, the tariff battles and 'bilateral deals' eroding the WTO-led multilateral trading system, and Japan caught in alliance dilemmas, the G7's normative project on the Western liberal order—on climate, equity, and solidarity with the Global South—is visibly fraying.

Meanwhile, the ongoing UN Financing for Development Summit in Seville—also referenced in the G7 Summit—spotlighted a US-led funding and aid retreat by the West, including the stunning cutoff of US contributions to the UN budget—a consequential 25 per cent share. The widening SDGs financing gap of $4 trillion per year threatens the entire sustainable development project for humanity.
In sidelining these issues, the G7 not only ignored a majority of the world's population—it neglected the very engines of future growth and resilience. When those most vulnerable to climate shocks, food crises, and debt spirals are excluded, talk of global leadership rings hollow. Multilateralism, once the G7's shared project, is losing its breath.
It wasn't just the chequebook that was missing—it was vision. The G7, once seen as the self-styled conductor and animator of the multilateral system anchored in the UN, IMF, World Bank, and WTO, increasingly resembles an orchestra rehearsing without a score: the institutions remain, the instruments are not tuned, and harmony is absent. This does not bode well for the G20—a counterpart that includes the 10 strongest developing economies—especially after the high of India's historic presidency.

Divergences appeared on Russia. In 2024, the G7 had presented a unified front—reinforcing sanctions, vowing long-term support to Ukraine to fight on 'as long as it takes,' and positioning Russia as the primary threat to peace and security in Europe and a disruptor of international order. This year, however, US President Donald Trump's assertion that Russia's expulsion in 2014 had been a 'mistake' signalled a change of tack.
The Chair's Summary supported Trump's efforts to bring about a just and lasting peace in Ukraine, noted Ukraine's willingness for a ceasefire, and called on Russia to do the same—possibly reflecting a pragmatic softening of position among European powers towards ending the war. The only concession was that sanctions against Russia should be used to bring it to the negotiating table.
But the US narrative, now coloured by President Trump's America First predilections and a focus on transactional diplomacy, underscored the deepening trust deficit in the Western alliance, as the subsequent NATO summit also indicated. President Trump's abrupt and premature departure from the summit—to address the Iran–Israel escalation without consulting allies—was a symptom.

In all of this, China—the authoritarian challenger to the G7 and its Western liberal order—emerged as the antipodal geopolitical and economic gainer. In contrast to the 2024 G7 Communiqué, which contained 28 direct and indirect 'frenemical' references to China—accusing it of economic coercion, cyber aggression, support to Russia's war machine, and human rights violations in Tibet, Xinjiang, and Hong Kong, including explicit legal invocations of the South China Sea and the Indo-Pacific—the 2025 summit retreated into euphemism and strategic ambiguity.
Combatting China's weaponisation of economic interdependence, its export controls, forced tech transfers, and cyber-enabled interference was now couched as a clarion call for Western collective capacity-building defensive frameworks—signalling concern without escalation. Also, the seeming retreat from global development cooperation and multilateralism seemed to vacate the space for China to occupy.
In 2025, the Chair's Summary reaffirmed commitment to a 'free, open, prosperous, and secure Indo-Pacific' and explicitly named China for destabilising actions in the East and South China Seas and stressed the importance of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
Yet, without a full communiqué, the framing was more symbolic than strategic, reflecting continuity in posture but caution in pressure.
The competition-cum-threat perception about China was specifically evident in three of the six most action-oriented, G7 leaders' joint statements—on the Critical Minerals Action Plan, Transnational Repression, and the Kananaskis Common Vision for the Future of Quantum Technologies. The first signalled G7 action beyond rhetoric, in response to China's near-monopoly on rare earth elements and its recent export curbs causing price spikes and global supply chain disruptions. India formally endorsed the Action Plan, along with Australia and South Korea, positioning itself not merely as a stakeholder but as a co-author of the emerging mineral security order, opening avenues for standard-setting, technology sharing, and investment partnerships.
The Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Prosperity joint statement reaffirmed the G7's commitment to human-centric, secure, and trustworthy AI, introducing initiatives like the G7 GovAI Grand Challenge, the GAIN network, and a comprehensive AI Adoption Roadmap—including measures to accelerate AI adoption in the public sector and among SMEs. However, the omission of any framework for frontier AI regulation or safety standards was conspicuous—especially given the G7's own Hiroshima AI Process. The pivot appears to be from shared global governance—which the AI Action Summit in Paris in February 2025 had set out in a Declaration on inclusive and sustainable AI—to a laissez-faire approach favoured by the US and UK. India, with its robust AI programs and ambitious plans, will no doubt continue to engage with these initiatives.

On quantum technologies, the G7 called for a 'trusted ecosystem' for open and secure innovation—a framing that subtly reflects awareness of China's accelerating capabilities in the field. While not explicitly exclusionary, the repeated emphasis on collaboration among like-minded partners and protection of sensitive technologies signalled a preference for tighter convergence within existing alliances—which India could join.
The 2025 G7 Leaders' Statement on Transnational Repression marks a significant shift—outlining concrete tactics like spyware-enabled surveillance, forced returns, and diaspora intimidation, and signalling a coordinated pushback against authoritarian overreach. It builds on the 2024 framing, where the G7 had grouped transnational repression under Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (FIMI)—alongside 'malicious cyber activities'—with 'indirect but unmistakable references to China, including mentions of economic coercion and support to Russia's war effort'. This year, however, no country is named. The language is more operational but also more cautious—retreating from last year's sharper references. Still, the behaviours described remain clearly recognisable, and the targets evident.

The G7 Leaders' Statement on Countering Migrant Smuggling, vowing to 'dismantle transnational organised crime networks,' reflected growing hardline anti-immigration policies aggressively espoused by the US and now echoed in parts of Europe. These will have implications for Indians emigrating to these countries.
Amidst these fractures, India's participation as a 'guest' became a means to thaw its relations with Canada and share its perspectives. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney called India 'an essential actor in global governance and sustainable development', positioning it not just as an emerging partner but as a systemic player.
India used this strategic space with finesse. Its support for traceable, ethical critical mineral supply chains, responsible AI governance, and Global South development priorities marked a shift from transactional engagement to agenda-setting. In many ways, India stepped into the leadership void—not by dominating, but by convincingly articulating.
India also recalibrated the security discourse. In the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor, PM Modi advanced a broader framing: cross-border terrorism as part of a hybrid threat ecosystem, alongside cyberwarfare, spyware, and foreign information manipulation—which was also on the radar of the G7. While the G7's declarations avoided specifically focusing on terrorism, the threat's scope—from the US to Europe—made this omission glaring.
India's choice of strategic multi-alignment and its agility to interact with and within organisations like the G7, G20, and Brics—while engaging bilaterally with strategic partners in the G7—must remain central. We must continue to engage with G7 initiatives, which may become important platforms to build on our path towards Viksit Bharat. This, of course, must be done while engaging and cooperating wherever and whenever it serves our interest and advances our security and development objectives.
India's presence at Kananaskis offered a rare note of strategic clarity. While the G7 grappled with internal discord and diminishing purpose, PM Modi's emphasis on inclusive development, Global South priorities, and equitable energy transitions gave the summit a broader relevance. In a gathering that risked becoming a ritual without resonance, India's conduct lent meaning to the very cooperation others invoked rhetorically. As the multilateral and plurilateral grammar of international institutions evolves, India is not merely navigating the space between blocs—it is helping to reshape the script.
Whether the G7 chooses to follow remains uncertain.

Dr Jitendra Singh calls for paradigm shift in agriculture sector

Technology in agriculture has progressed rapidly under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership over the past 11 years, Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh said on Monday, calling for a paradigm shift in the agriculture sector by embracing cutting-edge technology and fostering greater synergy among stakeholders. Addressing the 96th annual general meeting of the ICAR Society at the NASC Complex in the capital, the minister said its full potential still remains untapped at the ground level. Speaking at the event, chaired by Agriculture Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Dr Singh underscored that every technology available globally is now accessible within India. 'It is no longer about whether technology is available—it is about how fast we adopt it and integrate it into our agricultural ecosystem to add value to our economy,' he told the gathering. The minister stressed the importance of breaking mental and institutional silos, noting that many in the agriculture value chain are not just unaware of new technologies, but also unaware that they are unaware. Pointing to success stories like the Lavender Revolution in Jammu and Kashmir, where over 3,500 startups have emerged around lavender cultivation, Dr Singh emphasised how new-age farming — using satellite imaging, remote-controlled tractors, and order-based crop production — is reshaping the agricultural narrative. 'From lavender in Bhaderwah to off-season tulips grown for temple offerings, we have examples where science and strategy have combined to generate both income and innovation,' he noted. He also highlighted that biotech-driven advances, such as pest-resistant cotton developed through Department of Biotechnology initiatives and radiation-based food preservation techniques by the Department of Atomic Energy, are redefining how produce is grown, stored, and exported. 'Our mangoes now fly to the U.S. thanks to these technologies. And yet, many states have not come forward to fully exploit these tools,' he observed. Dr Singh proposed more frequent and informal cross-ministerial interactions to ensure real-time exchange of innovations. 'We should not wait for annual meetings alone. Let's create working groups and reach out when solutions can be shared, spontaneously and practically,' he urged.

DS Group's Pulse Candy Becomes A INR 750 Crore Consumer Brand

The Dharampal Satyapal Group (DS Group), a leading FMCG conglomerate and multi-business corporation, has announced a significant milestone for one of its popular brands, Pulse. Pulse candy recorded over INR 750 crore at consumer price in the FY 2024-25 translating into 750 crore Pulse candies being sold in one year making it India's largest distributed hard boiled candy. This achievement establishes Pulses strong market leadership in the hard-boiled candy segment for the last 9 years and its sustained appeal to consumers. Mr Rajiv Kumar, Vice Chairman, DS Group Over the past three fiscal years, Pulse has registered an impressive Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15% against a CAGR of 9 % in the hard boiled candy segment industry. This consistent growth in revenue highlights the brands strong pull across both urban and rural markets, especially when the broader market dynamics have not been as buoyant. According to market data, Pulse candy currently holds a 19% market share in India's hard-boiled candy segment and has been growing consistently. This significant share, achieved in a highly competitive landscape, reflects the brands strong consumer pull and high repeat purchase rates. In the initial years following its launch, Pulse candy prioritized the establishment of robust distribution thrust, focusing on both expansion and deeper market penetration. Today, the distribution system has evolved significantly, becoming far more robust and efficient. This enhanced system optimizes inventory flow, expands customer touchpoints, and improves market responsiveness. This results in a mature and well-managed supply chain. 'DS Group's vision for Pulse, a leading Indian ethnic confectionery brand in India, is to evolve it into a multi-format, multi-occasion offering. We plan to achieve this by strategically moving into adjacent product categories, exploring innovative new formats, and capitalizing on the rich tapestry of regional flavors. Our consistent focus on brand building, enhanced consumer engagement, and achieving deeper market penetration will help us maintain our leadership position. Were aggressively pursuing both domestic and international markets for expansion. On the domestic front, were leveraging our robust distribution network that has a reach of over 35 lakh outlets across India,' said Mr Rajiv Kumar, Vice Chairman, DS Group. 'Pulse, with its delightful fusion of fruity and surprisingly tangy flavors, particularly the familiar raw mango with a zesty core, offered an unparalleled sensory experience to the consumer. This distinctly appealed to Indias preference for tangy tastes which was a significant departure from the Western-format candies prevalent at the time. Pulse candy stands as a testament to the evolving Indian consumer who is more value-conscious today and DS Group truly leveraged this understanding by disrupting the market with its pricing strategy. At a time when 86% of the hard boiled candy market was at the 50-paise price point, Pulse boldly launched at INR 1. This wasnt just a higher price; it was a perceived higher value that resonated deeply with our palates and our pockets,' Mr Kumar added. 'Pulse revolutionized the confectionery market by challenging the notion that candies were solely for children. It strategically tapped into an overlooked demographic, the adults, thereby significantly broadening the consumer base for impulse confectionery. Why should kids have all the fun That was the premise. We leveraged our keen understanding of local palates and unmet consumer needs, allowing Pulse to redefine the segment and establish itself as a trendsetting brand with remarkable consumer loyalty. Even our packaging and design for Pulse was clutter breaking,' he said. DS Group revolutionized the Indian confectionery market in 2015 with Pulse. Leveraging its expertise in flavors and fragrances and deep understanding of Indian ethnic tastes, the organization reimagined the hard-boiled candy into a vibrant sensory experience with a surprising tangy core. Pulse was born out of a sharp consumer insight. Mango once captured 50% of the hard-boiled candy market, with raw mango accounting for 26% of this share, making it the dominant flavor profile within that segment. Leveraging the nostalgic element of the raw mango, DS Group transformed it into an innovative product. Pulses success stemmed from its raw mango flavor profile resonating with Indian palates and the signature tangy core delivering a layered sensation. Targeting all age groups, Pulse bridged traditional tastes with the contemporary format – it brought Indianness into a Western format, appealing to everyone. Driven initially by strong word-of-mouth and a loyal base, its differentiated positioning with 'Pran Jaaye Par Pulse Na Jaaye' deeply resonated. Flavour extensions like Guava, Orange, Pineapple, and Litchi, along with format innovations like Shots in the original Kachcha Aam flavour, have helped keep the brand fresh and relevant in Indias impulse confectionery segment. The Pulse brands trajectory from disruptive entrant to industry leader is also an IIM Ahmedabad marketing excellence case study, complementing its sustained benchmark-setting in product innovation and marketing proficiency. The IIMA case study offers a deep dive into the innovative marketing strategies and strategic decisions behind Pulse Candys remarkable success. It comprehensively explores how the DS Group identified a market need, developed a unique product, and overcame challenges to achieve its phenomenal rise to prominence. Pulse candy pioneered Indias hard-boiled sector and its unconventional marketing also gained recognition, notably the Pulse of the Sky campaign, which entered the Limca Book of Records for simultaneously flying 1,150 kites during Uttarayan 2023 making it the only hard boiled candy to enter the Limca Book of Records. Pulse cultivated enduring brand engagement through initiatives like the award-winning Pulse Ka Pandal, Pulse Ganesh Mahotsav and received widespread industry acclaim for various campaigns securing accolades across platforms like the Abbys South Asia and Kyoorius Creative Awards. In fact, Pulse Candy's initial success was significantly driven by strong word-of-mouth, organic posts by celebrities and influencers, several user generated content from a loyal consumer base and social media promotion. Pulse expanded its product line by adding Pulse Golmol – Imli Flavour,' a treat that takes one on a nostalgic journey. Inspired by the familiar tamarind (imli) flavour that has delighted generations again, Pulse Golmol Imli is a tangy soft chew. Made from high quality ingredient, 'Pulse Golmol Imli Goli' is infused with natural tamarind. It offers a distinctive combination of tangy and sweet flavours, delivering an irresistible burst of fun filled tanginess. DS Groups culture of innovation and commitment to quality is evident across all segments of the confectionery business of DS Group. Besides Pulse candy, DS Group has also crafted compelling brand narratives and distinct consumer propositions for its key brands like Pass Pass, Rajnigandha Silver Pearls, Chingles, Oval, Piata, Cherio, Pulse Golmol and LuvIt. In the competitive Indian Ethnic Confectionery segment, DS Group stands out with its diverse offerings. Pass Pass offers a vibrant mix of flavours crafted for those who enjoy layered taste experiences, while Rajnigandha Silver Pearls continues to lead the market with its iconic, single-ingredient purity. With continuous innovation, DS Group has successfully transformed the Indian Ethnic Confectionery category into a branded and organized market, providing consumers with unique options to suit their preferences.

In a landmark move that signals bold ambitions for international expansion and cross-border innovation, HT Labs, the innovation and product arm of HT Media, has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with The Doers Company-organisers of Europe's leading innovation events such as Reflect Festival and the upcoming Doers Summit. HT Labs and The Doers Company Sign Strategic MoU to Strengthen India-Cyprus-UAE Innovation Corridor The MoU was formalised at a high-profile event hosted at Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO) under the aegis of Dubai Integrated Economic Zones Authority (DIEZ), with participation from government dignitaries, investors, and tech leaders spanning India, Cyprus, and the UAE. The collaboration arrives at a pivotal moment of renewed global engagement, following Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Cyprus and a subsequent delegation led by the Cypriot Deputy Minister of Research, Innovation & Digital Policy to Dubai. The delegation included top officials such as the Chief Scientist of Cyprus and key investors and business leaders from Europe and the Middle East-underscoring a powerful tri-nation vision to foster startup growth, capital flow, and entrepreneurial exchange across India, Cyprus, and the UAE. The alliance empowers HT Labs to leverage The Doers Company's extensive European innovation ecosystem to accelerate the global journey of OTTplay-India's first AI-powered OTT aggregator and recommendation engine.
