Prime Minister Modi and the German Chancellor will co-chair the sixth edition of the India-Germany Inter-Governmental Consultations-IGC. The biennial IGC is a unique dialogue format that also sees participation of several Ministers from both sides. This will be the Prime Minister’s first IGC with Chancellor Scholz and also the first such Government-to-Government consultations of the new German government, which assumed office in December last year.
On the last leg of the tour, the Prime Minister will briefly stop over in Paris and meet French President Emmanuel Macron. The visit to France will provide an opportunity to carry forward the high level engagement between the two countries post the French Presidential elections.
