In 2022, the world faced an unprecedented convergence of crises—post-pandemic recovery, climate breakdown, food and fuel shortages, and rising geopolitical tensions. Amidst one of the most challenging periods in modern history, India stepped up to lead the G20. With Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’, India united fractured global powers, driving bold solutions and fostering hope in a divided world.

In How India Scaled Mt G20, Amitabh Kant, India’s G20 Sherpa, offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the intense negotiations, strategic manoeuvring, and backroom diplomacy that defined India’s presidency. From climate action and digital transformation to tackling inequality, this insider’s account reveals how India shaped the future of global governance under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi and rallied the G20 towards a new era of unity and cooperation.



Amitabh Kant is India’s G20 Sherpa. He has served as the CEO of National Institution for Transforming India (NITI) Aayog, the Government of India’s premier policy think tank. Prior to that, he was Secretary, Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion. A 1980-batch Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer of the Kerala cadre, Kant has been a key driver of initiatives like Make in India, Startup India, Incredible India! and God’s Own Country, which have positioned India as a leading manufacturing and tourism destination.
