 Greetings to everyone at the International Energy Agency's Ministerial Meeting. It is significant that IEA is marking the 50th anniversary of Establishment. Congratulations for this milestone. I also extend my gratitude to Ireland and France for co-chairing this meeting. Friends, India is the world's fastest growing major economy. Sustain growth needs energy security and sustainability. In one decade, we went from the 11th largest economy to the 5th largest. In the same period, our solar energy capacity grew 26 fold. Our renewable energy capacity also doubled. We exceeded our Paris commitments in this regard ahead of timelines. Friends, India is home to 17% of the global population. We are running some of the world's largest energy access initiatives. Eight, our carbon emissions account for only 4% of the global total. However, we are firmly committed to combating climate change. Ours is a collective and proactive approach. India has already laid initiatives such as the International Solar Alliance. Our mission life focuses on pro-planet lifestyle choice for a collective impact. Reduce, reuse and recycle is a part of India's traditional way of life. India's G20 presidency also saw a significant action on this front. The launch of the global biofuel alliance was one of the highlights. I thank the IAA for the support to this initiative. Friends, inclusivity boosts the credibility and capability for any institution. 1.4 billion Indians bring talent, technology and innovation to the table. We bring scale and speed, quantity and quality to every mission. I am sure that the IAA will benefit when India plays a bigger role in it. I send my wishes for the success of the ministerial meeting of the IAA. Let us leverage this platform to strengthen existing partnership and form new ones. Let us build a cleaner, greener and inclusive world. Thank you. Thank you very much.
