China's Xi Jinping's "Break New Ground" Offer To France, Days After Macron's India Visit

Chinese President Xi Jinping has offered to "break new ground" to give a fillip to the China-France ties, days after French President Emmanuel Macron's high-profile visit to India during which the two countries unveiled an ambitious defence roadmap besides intensifying cooperation in the strategic Indian Ocean and the Indo-Pacific region.

Macron's visit to India also coincided with the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and France.

In his message on the occasion, Xi said "As today's world is once again at a critical crossroads, China and France should jointly open up a path of peace, security, prosperity and progress for human development."

Xi said China attaches great importance to the development of bilateral ties and he stands ready to work with Macron to take the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations as an "opportunity to uphold fundamental principles, break new ground, build on past achievements, open up a new future, and make China-France comprehensive strategic partnership more solid and dynamic," the official media reported.

China has offered to step up French imports to the country, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said.

"We will continue to unleash consumer and investment market demand, continue to expand the import of high-quality products and services from France", he said and hoped that France too will provide Chinese companies with a fair, just and predictable business environment.

China prioritises ties with France as Macron is pushing Europe to become a third bloc, a balancing force between the US and China.

Hailing China-France ties, Chinese official media has called for stepping up cooperation in high-tech areas.

"Scientific and technological cooperation between France and China has been a cornerstone of their relationship. From aerospace and the nuclear industry to renewable energy, the two countries have made significant strides in joint research and development", state-run China Daily said in its editorial.

President Macron was the sixth leader from France to be the chief guest at India's 75th Republic Day celebrations in New Delhi on January 26.

Beijing kept a wary watch on Macron's visit to India as Paris is emerging as a key defence partner to New Delhi amid efforts by the US and European Union to court India as a counterweight to counter China.

After Macron's talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the two countries unveiled an ambitious defence industrial roadmap to co-develop critical military hardware besides firming up cooperation in the Indian Ocean and Indo-Pacific region, a key area of concern for China.

"Defence and security partnership has been the cornerstone of India-France partnership in the Indo-Pacific region, which includes a comprehensive range of bilateral, multinational, regional and institutional initiatives, especially in the Indian Ocean Region", the joint statement issued after Macron's visit to India said.

"They also agreed to intensify their cooperation in the Southwest Indian Ocean, building on the joint surveillance missions carried out from the French island territory of La Reunion in 2020 and 2022", it said.

The intensification of India-France cooperation in the Indian Ocean concerns China as it tries to make forays in India's backyard.

The US, India and several other world powers have been discussing the need to ensure a free, open and thriving Indo-Pacific in the backdrop of China's rising military manoeuvring in the resource-rich region.

The themes have been selected in line with Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s views that ‘India is truly a mother of democracy’.

For the first time, the parade will be heralded by 100 women artists playing Indian musical instruments. The parade would commence with the music of Sankh, Naadswaram, Nagada, etc. to be played by women artists.

G20 Summit: India’s Global Assertion

A galaxy of global top leaders are expected to ratify important strategic discussions at the G20 Summit in New Delhi.

Rajneesh De, Consulting Editor, APAC News Network

India will be hosting the 2-day G20 Summit in New Delhi over this weekend (September 9-10) for which leaders from some of the world's top economies will gather in the city on Friday. After all, the G20 consists of 19 countries and the European Union, contributing about 85% of the global GDP and two-thirds of the world's population. The 19 countries include Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, United Kingdom and United States.

The capital city is all decked up to welcome the delegates, especially at the Bharat Mandapam in Pragati Maidan which will be the main venue of this gala event. India has created the slogan "One Earth, One Family, One Future" for this G20 Summit. This slogan perfectly captures India’s underlying philosophy of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" (the world is one family), which has for the last few months guided India's G20 leadership.

The G20 presidency India assumed on December 1, 2022 has provided the country the appropriate platform to reinforce itself as the harbinger of strategic autonomy in an increasingly geopolitically polarized world. The G20 leadership offered the country the opportunity to showcase the “India story” to the world countering multiple contingencies including global warming, food and energy shortage, terrorism, geopolitical conflict, and bridging the digital divide. This is finally sort of culminating in the G20 Summit this weekend.

The G20 Summit Roll Call: Who’s Coming, Who’s Not

India might have performed laudably during its G20 Presidency throughout the year, but the successes of such diplomatic summits are often measured by the world leaders who are participating and who are not. Often the presence or absence of these leaders leads to strategic diplomatic initiatives either undertaken or shelved.

This weekend too while quite a few top leaders will grace the occasion, a few key absentees has led to speculations about the ultimate efficacy of the Summit. First on the positive side, the Delhi G20 summit will be attended by US President Joe Biden, Britain premier Rishi Sunak, Canada premier Justin Trudeau, Japan premier Fumio Kishida Italy premier Giorgia Meloni, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, French President Emmanuel Macron, South Africa's Presidnet Cyril Ramaphosa, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Indonesian President Joko Widodo, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Nigerian President Bola Tinubu.

Not only these leaders control the majority of the global diplomatic permutations and combinations today, they are also vital to India's strategic geopolitical positioning in the world order. No wonder therefore, that on the sidelines of the G20 Summit, many of these leaders have planned one on strategic discussions with the Indian PM Narendra Modi and other Indian leaders.

However, the two key absences of Chinese supremo Xin Ping and the Russian President Vladimir Putin has created more air waves and newsprints at the possible future repercussions globally.Though Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Chinese Premier Li Qiang will be attending, many observers feel that the possibility of a top level Sino US discussion has gone and this could even subsequently impact India's position vis-a-vis China and US in this sensitive geography.

Putin's absence (probably to dodge an International Criminal Court warrant) as well as the absence of Ukraine premier Zelensky implies there will be no scope for some sort of reconciliatory meeting between Russia and Ukraine for the first time since the Russian aggression into Ukraine territory. The Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is also likely to skip the G20 Summit.

India is putting up a brave face notwithstanding the absence of Putin and Xinping. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar rebutted, "I think, at different points of time in G20 there have been some Presidents or PMs who, for whatever reason, have chosen not to come themselves. But that country and its position is reflected by whoever is the representative on that occasion...I think everybody is coming with a great deal of seriousness...".

The US also concurs, especially on the Chinese front. “What I think the Chair, India, will encourage them to do what we, the United States and every other member, virtually every other member of the G20 will do, is encourage them to come in, in a constructive way and really focus on problem-solving and delivering for the developing countries," US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan reiterated.

G20 Deliberations and Declaration: India on Top

The United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres will attend as an observer, along with the heads of the IMF and the World Bank also in attendance. Perhaps this best signifies how today India is expected to give direction to the world to counter terrorism, geo-political conflicts, geo-economical disparities and lead towards creating and nurturing a post-pandemic resilient society. As the global advocate for peace, security and prosperity, India is expected to steer and prepare the world for the future by formulating solutions and initiating dialogues for both ge-political and geo-economical issues.

In an exclusive interview with PTI, PM Modi had already reiterated, “India's G20 Presidency also sowed seeds of confidence in countries of the so-called third world. Africa is a top priority for us in G20; no future plan of earth can succeed without all voices being heard."

India has been leading from the front on the issue of the African Union's membership of the G20. In June, PM Modi wrote to the G20 leaders pitching for according to the African Union the full membership of the grouping at its New Delhi summit. A final decision on the proposal would be taken over the weekend. The African Union is an influential organization comprising 55 member states that make up the countries of the African continent.

At the end of the summit, a declaration will be adopted stating all the leaders’ commitments towards the priorities discussed and agreed upon during the respective ministerial and working group meetings. Under India's year-long presidency, the G20 groups have centred discussions around providing more loans to developing nations from multilateral institutions, reforming international debt architecture, regulations on cryptocurrency and the impact of geopolitical uncertainties on food and energy security.

The G20 ministerial decisions taken across all domains throughout the year are likely to prove to be pivotal for the world's future. “We will continue with constructive contributions well past our G20 Presidency. Inflation is a key issue faced by the world, our G20 Presidency led to the recognition that anti-inflation policies in one country do not harm others," PM Modi further informed.

The thorn on the side has been the Russia-Ukraine conflict. So far this year, the G20 bloc has failed to issue any joint statements as it is deeply divided over language referring to the war in Ukraine. While Russia and China are against blaming Moscow for the war in Ukraine, Western countries including the United States, France and Canada have sought a strong condemnation as a necessary condition for a joint statement. The situation looks unlikely to be resolved this weekend too and this will be an uncomfortable legacy India will hand over to Brazil as it assumes the next G20 presidency.

G20 Summit Impact: Delhi Stalled over Weekend

While the G20 Summit organization in Delhi would definitely add a feather to India's cap globally, it would definitely create disturbances with normal life in the national capital over this weekend. The Delhi government has issued a gazette notification on September 5 detailing traffic restrictions in the national capital ahead of the weekend.

According to the notification, vehicles including goods vehicles, commercial vehicles, interstate buses, and local city buses, will not be allowed to operate on Mathura Road (beyond Ashram Chowk), Bhairon Road, Purana Quila Road, and inside Pragati Maidan Tunnel from midnight on September 7 until 11:59 PM on September 10. However, goods vehicles transporting essential commodities such as milk, vegetables, fruits, medical supplies, and others with valid 'No Entry Permissions' will be permitted to enter Delhi. Whatever justifications might be outlined, there is little doubt that this will seriously affect citizen movements in the capital for 3-4 days.

In addition, the entire area of New Delhi District will be designated as "Controlled Zone-I" from 5 AM on September 8 until 11:59 PM on September 10. The area inside Ring Road (Mahatma Gandhi Marg) will be considered a "Regulated Zone" during the same period. This means that only authorized residents, emergency vehicles, and vehicles traveling to the Airport, Old Delhi, and New Delhi Railway Stations, as well as other authorized vehicles, will be allowed to use the road network in the New Delhi District during these hours.

During the summit on September 9 and 10, establishments in the New Delhi area, including Bharat Mandapam in Pragati Maidan, will remain closed for the public. Dhaula Kuan, Khan Market, Janpath, and Bhikaji Cama Place have been designated as "sensitive areas," but no markets will be shut; movement will be regulated instead. Moreover, Cloud kitchens and delivery services will notbe allowed in the New Delhi area during the summit. However, essential services like grocery stores, ATMs, and medical stores will remain open in the regulated zone.

No TSR (three-wheeled shared taxi) and taxi services will be permitted to enter or operate within the New Delhi District from 5 AM on September 9 until 11:59 PM on September 10. However, all types of commercial vehicles, including buses already present in Delhi, will be permitted to travel on Ring Road and the road network beyond Ring Road towards the borders of Delhi.

Delhi Police has also outlined a series of restrictions on online delivery services in Delhi during the upcoming Summit. These restrictions will be in effect from September 8 to 10, with exceptions made for essential services, such as postal and medical deliveries. During the summit, the delivery of essential medical items, including lab reports and sample collections, will be permitted throughout the city and ambulance services as well will remain operational.

While no commercial activities will be allowed in New Delhi district during the G20 Summit, the restrictions will not affect the regular operation of metro services in the city, except for the Supreme Court metro station, which will be temporarily closed from September 8 to 10.

Delhi Metro is incidentally selling ‘Tourists Smart Cards’ to visitors at 36 stations from 4-13 September. Anticipating the footfall of passengers, the card is available in two categories. Either with one-day validity or three-day validity cards with both offering “unlimited rides” in the metro network.

The one-day validity Tourist Smart Card costs ₹200, whereas, the three-day validity card comes for ₹500. This amount also includes a refundable security deposit of ₹50. The 36 stations where these cards are being sold through dedicated counters include Kashmere Gate, Chandni Chowk, Chawri Bazar, New Delhi, Rajiv Chowk, Patel Chowk, Central Secretariat, Udyog Bhawan, Lok Kalyan Marg and Supreme Court metro stations among others.

Experience the Mystical Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi

Varanasi, also known as Kashi, is an ancient city in northern India, steeped in spirituality and cultural heritage. The city's vibrant colors, bustling streets, and ancient temples make it a captivating destination for travelers seeking a soulful experience. Among the numerous temples in Varanasi, the Shree Kashi Vishwanath Temple stands out as one of the most significant and revered pilgrimage sites.

History and Significance of Shree Kashi Vishwanath Temple

The Kashi Vishwanath Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and holds immense religious importance for Hindus. It is considered one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, which are believed to be the most sacred abodes of Lord Shiva. Over the centuries, the temple has undergone several cycles of destruction and reconstruction. The present structure was erected in the 18th century by Maharani Ahilyabai Holkar of Indore after the original temple was demolished by Emperor Aurangzeb.

Awe-Inspiring Architecture and Cultural Significance

The temple's architecture is a remarkable blend of Hindu and Islamic styles, reflecting the cultural diversity and history of the place. As visitors make their way through the maze of narrow lanes and alleys leading to the main sanctum, the sound of bells and chants creates an atmosphere of devotion and reverence. The intricate carvings and sculptures inside the temple showcase India's rich heritage and craftsmanship.

Interesting Facts and Traditions

The Shree Kashi Vishwanath Temple is not only a place of spiritual significance but also holds interesting facts and traditions:

Multiple Reconstructions: The temple has been destroyed and rebuilt multiple times, and the present structure stands as a testament to its resilience and the devotion of its followers.

Gold-Plated Dome and Spires: Maharaja Ranjit Singh of Punjab donated the gold-plated dome and two spires, adding to the temple's grandeur.

Distinguished Visitors: The temple has been graced by the presence of eminent figures, including former US President Barack Obama and French President Emmanuel Macron.

Offering of Silk Dhoti: A well-known tradition at the temple involves offering a silk dhoti and angavastram to Lord Vishwanath as a mark of honor.

Cultural Hub: The temple is not just a place of worship but also a hub of cultural activities, with music and dance performances held throughout the year.

Best Time to Visit Temple

The ideal time to visit the Kashi Vishwanath Temple is during the winter months, from November to February when the weather is pleasant, as Summer months can be hot, and monsoons bring heavy rainfall, making it difficult to explore the temple complex.

While visiting the temple, it is essential to adhere to the dress code and customs. Men are required to wear traditional Indian attire, like a dhoti-kurta or Pyjama-kurta, covering their heads with a cloth or cap/Hat. Women should dress modestly in sarees, salwar-kameez, or lehengas, also covering their heads.

Aarti Timings and the Mystical Experience

The temple follows a specific schedule for Aartis, Hindu rituals of offering prayers to the deities. The Mangala Aarti is performed early in the morning, waking up Lord Shiva, and seeking his blessings for the day ahead. The Bhog Aarti involves offering food to the deity, emphasizing the significance of charity. The Sandhya Aarti, performed in the evening, and the Shringar Aarti, the last of the day, is one of a kind experience.

The Kashi Vishwanath Corridor

In 2014, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi initiated the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor project to transform the temple's surroundings. The project aimed to ease congestion and enhance the overall pilgrimage experience. It involved acquiring and demolishing buildings and restoring heritage structures. Today, the corridor stands as a remarkable example of urban renewal and heritage conservation.

Stay at Niraan – The Tent City, Varanasi

For a luxurious and serene stay near the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, Niraan – The Tent City, Varanasi, is a perfect choice. Nestled along the Ganges, this glamping resort offers breathtaking views of the iconic ghats. Guests can immerse themselves in cultural immersion while enjoying bespoke accommodations and a range of facilities.

Conclusion: Embarking on a Mystical Journey

Visiting the Shree Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi is an experience that leaves a profound impact on one's soul. From its rich history and awe-inspiring architecture to its spiritual significance and cultural traditions, the temple offers a mystical journey into the heart of India's spiritual heritage. A visit to this sacred abode and a stay at Niraan – The Tent City, Varanasi, is a truly transformative experience, inviting travelers to embrace spirituality and immerse themselves in the charm of Varanasi.
