For the duration of India's G-20 presidency, as many as 250 cultural events will be held on the sidelines of key meetings for delegates, officials in the Ministry of Culture said.THE LIST of possible destinations for the upcoming G-20 meetings, which will set the stage for the group’s summit next year in the national capital, includes Kashmir, Siliguri, Rann of Kutch and Goa, The Indian Express has learnt. Deliberations in this regard were held during the ongoing State Tourism Ministers’ Conference in Dharamshala, officials said.
Kashmir’s selection as one of the possible venues may have diplomatic repercussions as some G-20 countries may have differing views on the situation in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir after the abrogation of Article 370.
Besides, foreign diplomats based in India, foreign officials and even India-based foreign journalists need special permission to visit J&K, which presents a procedural challenge for the Government.
The 200-plus meetings scheduled to be held in the run-up to the G-20 summit on September 9 and 10 next year, will mainly include those at the ministerial and official levels. There will also be meetings at the level of India-based diplomats apart from non-governmental interactions: civil society groups, think tanks, business, media and other such groupings from G-20 countries.
Several cultural and heritage sites are also likely to host some of these meetings, including UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as Ajanta Caves in Maharashtra, Hampi in Karnataka and Mahabalipuram in Tamil Nadu.
