Date:

New Delhi: Prime Minister’s Principal Secretary P K Mishra on Wednesday chaired the ninth meeting of the G20 coordination committee to take stock of preparations for the upcoming Summit of the grouping here.

In a statement after the meeting, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said a mobile app (G20 India) has been launched for G20 for the first time and is now available for download both on Android and iOS.

The PMO said G20 delegates and members of the media will also witness digital India first hand through the ‘Innovation Hub’ and ‘Digital India Experiential Hub’ which are being set up at the Bharat Mandapam.

It was noted in the meeting that work progress on the ground and on-site at the Bharat Mandapam, which will host some key G20 meetings, was satisfactory.

For a uniquely Indian experience, exhibitions on culture and ‘Mother of Democracy’ are being set up in the Bharat Mandapam, it said.

Mishra also reviewed progress in installation of Nataraj statue at the venue and especially curated programmes for the spouses of visiting leaders, it said.

Noting that restrictions are being placed due to security and protocol reasons, Mishra said efforts should be made to ensure minimum inconvenience is caused to the public.

“He directed that essential services in the city should not be affected. Further, communications regarding traffic restrictions be made more user-friendly,” it said.

Traffic advisory has already been issued for the public, it added.
