He described this as not only a personal achievement for Modi but also a recognition for every Indian.Referring to Modi’s visit to Ghana, Trinidad and Tobago, Argentina, Brazil, and Namibia, Trivedi stated, “India has gone on to become the brightest member of the BRICS from being the weakest during the UPA government.”Highlighting India’s dual membership in both BRICS and the QUAD, he said that it showed a shift in its foreign policy under Modi — from being non-aligned to becoming fully aligned with global partnerships. This, he argued, marked a transformative phase in India’s foreign policy.Trivedi went on to highlight the agreements India had secured with Ghana and Namibia, both of which possess vast reserves of critical and rare earth materials. These agreements, he said, would help India source essential minerals for its continued growth, reducing its dependence on a single country — implicitly referencing China.
