SRINAGAR, Jammu and Kashmir: With heavy security and no shutdown or blanket security curbs, Srinagar welcomed international and national delegates for the third G20 Tourism Working Group Meeting hosted under India's G20 Presidency. Despite a boycott from China and Pakistan, G20 delegates arrived at Sheikh–ul Alam International Airport, Srinagar for the mega event. Addressing the inaugural session, Jitendra Singh, Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science and Technology, Government of India, said that in terms of its obligations to the economy, environment, and society, India is prepared to share global responsibilities. “Today, when we meet in the scenic spot of Srinagar, we have this deep realisation within us that we are all a part of the global world, and India, under the prime ministership of Narendra Modi, is very cautious of that,” he said. 61 delegates from 29 nations are participating in the three-day G20 Tourism Meeting starting from May 22 to 24, 2023, which is the first major international event to be held in the Union Territory since the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019.
