Foreign ministers of eight member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) meeting begins in Goa on May 4 and 5.
This crucial meeting will set the stage for the SCO Leaders’ Summit to be held in July in New Delhi.
The theme of India’s Chairmanship of SCO in 2023 is ‘SECURE-SCO’. India attaches special importance to SCO in promoting multilateral, political, security, economic and people-to-people interactions in the region.
Since becoming a full member of the SCO in 2017, India has been nudging the bloc to add ‘English’ as an official language of communication.
The first such proposal was placed in 2020, necessitated by the inclusion of India and Pakistan as full members to a grouping that has had only Russian and Mandarin as the official and working languages of the bloc which was founded by Russia, China and four Central Asian nations where Russian language is widely in use.
