PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Monday laid out an ambitious roadmap for India's upcoming chairmanship of the BRICS grouping, pledging to reshape the bloc's agenda with a renewed focus on resilience, innovation, and sustainability, while continuing to champion the voice of the Global South.

"Under India's BRICS Chairmanship, we will define BRICS in a new form. BRICS would mean 'Building Resilience and Innovation for Cooperation and Sustainability'," Modi said, addressing fellow leaders at the 17th BRICS meet in Brazil.

He affirmed that India's leadership of the group, which includes among others Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, would build on the inclusive and people-first approach that defined its presidency of the G20 in 2023. "Just as during our G20 Presidency, we ensured inclusivity and prioritized issues of the Global South, in the same way, during our BRICS Chairmanship, we will take this forum forward with a people-centric approach and the spirit of Humanity First," Modi said.
