Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said humanity is facing “many major challenges” and warned that the current decade risks becoming a “decade of disasters” due to pandemics, wars and the global energy crisis. Addressing the Indian community in The Hague during his Netherlands visit, Modi said prolonged conflicts and rising fuel prices could push millions back into poverty if conditions do not change quickly. He highlighted India’s growing global role and stressed cooperation with the Netherlands to build resilient and transparent supply chains. His remarks come amid rising global tensions and a recent fuel price hike in India after four years. (PC: HT)
