Sansad Tv

On the show today, we’ll focus on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s two-day visit to Norway — significant not only because it is his first visit to the country, but also the first prime ministerial visit from India to Norway in 43 years. Alongside bilateral engagements, the Prime Minister will participate in the 3rd India-Nordic Summit in Oslo on Tuesday. The summit — the third since 2018 — reflects the growing strategic importance New Delhi attaches to this unique grouping of Northern European nations: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.We’ll discuss India’s Nordic policy, the steady expansion of engagement with the region, converging economic interests, and the shared geopolitical concerns and challenges shaping this partnership in an evolving global order.
