In Namibia, he positions Delhi not as dominant power, but as trusted partner in shared growth

- JAYANTH JACOB @ New Delhi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to Namibia's Parliament on Wednesday doubled as a broader pitch to Africa, positioning India not as a dominant power, but as a trusted partner in shared growth, equity, and digital transformation.

"We seek not to compete, but to cooperate. Our goal is to build together. Not to take, but to grow together. Our development partnership in Africa is worth over 12 billion dollars, but its real value is in shared growth and shared purpose," the PM declared in remarks that subtly contrasted India's model of engagement with other powers, particularly China, whose footprint in Africa has drawn increasing scrutiny for debt burdens and resource extraction.
