India needs to fashion appropriate diplomacy to tackle issues of a digitised world, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said here on Monday, adding that there will be the additional challenge for the country to create new partnerships and foster greater mobility to service a knowledge economy.

"Navigating the economic world will be no less complex than the political one. Here too, nations will strive to optimise outcomes and bridge divides as they pursue their national objectives," the minister said while addressing the Centre for Policy Research's (CPR) annual public forum here.

Jaishankar told the forum that economic challenges offer even less ground for complacency. In the last many years, the world trading system has felt the pressure of gains that some accrued from structural advantages.

"At a stage, it had to turn political; it finally did. But today, this argument extends beyond to non-trade domains like connectivity projects, technology choices, data protection, and security as well as IPR adherence. All of them have strategic connotations and to pretend otherwise is only to delude ourselves. In fact, for that very reason we have started a Technology Division in MEA," he said. 

The implications of the change in American posture on international commitments cannot be overstated, given that this was a key element of the post-1945 order. That other major powers have not moved beyond their national objectives indicates that the resulting deficit will remain unfilled.

For its part, India has stood out as a country willing to do much more, even with its limited though growing resources. But the problem remains for the world in the foreseeable future, the External Affairs Minister said. 

He also stated that the world has a growing interest in India becoming an additional engine of growth, adding that it is amenable to harnessing the reservoir of talent that India could provide with the passage of time.

"Our strong commitment to realising Sustainable Development Goals is deeply appreciated, including for its global significance. Whether it is in terms of technology, best practices or resources, there is a proclivity to partner with a nation whose prospects are clearly so assured. Our economic engagement with the world also requires careful deliberation and effective preparation lest we end up eroding our own capacities. How to do that best in this emerging geopolitical landscape is a complex exercise that deserves serious strategising," he said. 

Therefore, the last few years have demonstrated a growing Indian capacity to contribute to the global discourse and make a difference to international outcomes, Jaishankar stressed. 

After a generation of extolling the virtues of globalisation, the External Affairs Minister noted that India, today, is a part of a fractured world with polarised debates. 

Not only has the landscape become more difficult but the very articulation of interests has come under challenge, he said."Competition is not just amongst states but often within them, reflecting the tension between the older order and the emerging one. When ideologies, identities and history mix with business, politics, and strategy, it can create a very potent cocktail," he added.

Jaishankar says India needs to fashion appropriate diplomacy to tackle issues of digitized world

Telecom Minister Manoj Sinha launched India&#39;s first locally developed 4G/LTE telecom system amid an international buyers-sellers meet of the telecom industry.

The system has been designed and developed by India&#39;s leading telecom equipment manufacturer, VNL Ltd., keeping in mind requirement for high-speed connectivity, particularly in rural areas.

The 4G gear fulfills the domestic equipment manufacturers&#39; aspiration for Made in India products, based on LTE technology, for ensuring seamless connectivity at most affordable prices and reduce substantially the import dependence for the same.

The portfolio has access and core network elements which are best in class, power efficient, optimised solutions keeping in mind need for sustainable mobile broadband services for remote and rural deployments.

The 4G/LTE equipment was launched immediately after the felicitation of Manoj Sinha for connecting 100,000 villages as part of Bharat Net at the annual get together of buyers and sellers, sponsored by Government of India under the aegis of the Telecom Equipment and Services Export Promotion Council.

&quot;The latest range of technologically robust 4G/LTE telecom products is the outcome of our strong in-house R&amp;D capabilities and signify India&#39;s inherent strengths in the area of telecom equipment manufacturing. These systems offer compact and versatile radio applications and can operate flawlessly even in harsh environment. The offering includes portable solutions that allow them to support a wide range of scenarios, thereby giving admirable flexibility for quick and efficient radio installations. With VNL&#39;s commitments towards Green Telecommunication, the solutions can operate solely on renewable energy,&quot; said VNL Founder Chairman Mr&nbsp;Rajiv Mehrotra.

The system can also be deployed for a variety of applications including emergency communication, communication needs of offshore oil fields, mines, and other institutional requirements.

VNL had successfully executed several projects globally in countries like Peru, Mexico, Ghana, Nigeria, Indonesia, Myanmar and Bhutan.

In India, VNL has successfully executed a challenging assignment to roll out mobile telecom network providing voice and data connectivity in the Left-Wing Extremist affected areas. This is considered to be the single largest green telecom roll out in the world. This project has also won the company accolades and appreciation from various quarters.&nbsp;
