PM Narendra Modi arrived in Zurich and will meet the Switzerland President. Thereafter, he will head to Davos to attend the World Economic Forum. PM Modi is the first Indian PM to make an appearance at the high-profile summit in 20 years. The Prime Minister will lead India’s largest ever contingent of 130 participants, including five Union ministers and several industry leaders. The CEO delegation, led by apex industry body CII, will include Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, Azim Premji, Rahul Bajaj, N Chandrasekaran, Chanda Kochhar, Uday Kotak and Ajay Singh, among others. Bollywood, another Indian export to the world, will also make its presence felt, with actor Shahrukh Khan set to be honoured with the ‘Crystal Award’, along with Australian actress Cate Blanchett and legendary musician Elton John. PM Modi, however, is not accompanied by Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, who has decided to stay back to prepare for Union Budget 2018. Modi will deliver the plenary session at the summit on Tuesday, a speech delivered by Chinese President Xi Jinping last year. On Wednesday, the PM will host a dinner for global CEOs. A meet-and-greet with Donald Trump, however, is doubtful with the US government shutdown clouding the president’s visit.
