Start with a hook that highlights the importance of Jaishankar’s address. Mention his role as Indiaβs chief diplomat and the significance of the UNGA as a global platform.
Briefly introduce the two main themes: multipolarity and counter-terrorism. Frame them as the core pillars of India’s current foreign policy.
Championing a Multipolar World
The Problem: Explain that the current world order is a relic of the past, dominated by a few nations.
India’s Solution: Detail India’s vision for a multipolar world where power is distributed among several centers, giving more voice to the Global South.
Evidence: Reference India’s leadership of the G20, its partnerships like the Quad and BRICS, and its call for reforms within the UN, especially the UN Security Council (UNSC). This shows India’s actions align with its words.
A Zero-Tolerance Stance on Terrorism
The Problem: Discuss how terrorism remains a global threat and is often politicized by certain nations.
India’s Solution: Highlight India’s firm “zero-tolerance” stance. Mention Jaishankar’s previous speeches where he has called out countries for sponsoring terrorism without naming them directly, using phrases like “politicizing the UN sanction regime.”
Evidence: Refer to India’s own history with cross-border terrorism and its persistent call for a comprehensive global convention against terrorism.
India’s Broader UNGA Agenda
This section can broaden the article to include other topics Jaishankar is likely to address, such as:
Climate action and environmental responsibility.
Reforming global financial institutions to be fairer to developing nations.
India’s recent domestic achievements, like its digital infrastructure and poverty alleviation efforts.
Conclusion
Summarize the main points, reiterating that Jaishankar’s speech is a clear articulation of a confident, self-reliant India ready to take on a larger, more responsible role on the world stage.
End with a forward-looking statement about how India’s stance will influence global diplomacy in the coming years.
