The Australia India Institute (AII) is a leading centre for the study of India located in Melbourne. Through its teaching, research, public policy and outreach programs, it is building Australia’s capacity to understand India. AII is also a hub for dialogue, research and partnerships between India and Australia. Based at the University of Melbourne, the Institute hosts a growing range of programs that are deepening and enriching the relationship between the two countries.
Australia India Institute provided me an opportunity to represent the Institute at a panel discussion organised by the Australia India Business Council (AIBC) in Sydney after Narendra Modi was sworn in as India's 15th Prime Minister. My task was to throw light on Narendra Modi's style of functioning and what his arrival on the national scene means for Australia.
The panel included, Mr Sanjay Sudhir - Consul General of India, Mr Neville Roach – Chairman, ANZ Advisory Board TCS, Mr Kumar Parakala – Partner, KPMG, Ms Mosiqi Acharya – Journalist (India) and Mr Arun Jagatramka – Chairman & MD, Gujarat NRE Coke LTD (India). Each panellist presented their views of the new Indian government which was followed by a question and answer round.
