Prime Minister Narendra Modi said BRICS has reached a moment of “coming of age”, as the grouping seeks to translate its unity and consensus into tangible results on the global stage. Addressing the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi, Modi said the grouping had established a distinct identity over the past two decades and that member countries respect each other’s perspectives while moving forward through consensus. He stressed that BRICS should advance not by opposing anyone, but by taking everyone along.
