India has a long history of economic and cultural engagement with the world. Over the last many centuries, India's economic and cultural bonds with the world have weakened. 

Over the last 4 years, diplomacy has been linked to development—developing India and helping the world achieve sustainable growth as defined by UN’s 2030 Agenda.
