Presenting VNR on behalf of India, Kumar said that in combating the epidemic, the Indian government has adopted Modi's goal of "Self-reliant India".

In his address, Kumar said, "It does not at all mean that India is self-supporting or a lonely country. We are advocates of a multilateral global economic system whose potential should not be doubted. ”

Kumar was also present at the NITI Aayog with Advisor Samyukta Samadar during the presentation of VNR.

Kumar said that the Covid-19 epidemic has created a lot of challenges for all countries.
