New Delhi [India], September 9 (ANI): Noting that India's <keyword id="4709730" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="g20-presidency" source="Orion">G20 Presidency</keyword> has become a symbol of inclusion both inside and outside the country, Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="narendra-modi" source="Orion">Narendra Modi</keyword> said on Saturday that it has become "People's G20" in India and crores of citizens are connected with it. In his opening statement at <keyword id="42982" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="g20-summit" source="Orion">G20 Summit</keyword> being hosted under India's presidency, PM Modi spoke of global challenges and said 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas' can be the torch bearer to address these. The plaque in front of PM Modi at the G20 Summit said "Bharat". "India's G20 presidency has become a symbol of inclusion, of 'sabka saath' both inside and outside the country. This has become People's G20 in India. Crores of Indians are connected to this. In more than 60 cities of the country, more than 200 meetings have taken place. With the sense of 'Sabka Saath', India had proposed that the <keyword id="148491" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="african-union" source="Orion">African Union</keyword> be granted permanent membership of G20. I believe that all of us agree to this proposal," he said. PM Modi also invited the head of the African Union to take his seat as a member of the G20. The first session of the summit under the theme 'One Earth' started at Bharat Mandapam, the venue of the conference. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar accompanied the President of the Union of Comoros and Chairperson of the African Union (AU), Azali Assoumas he took his seat among world leaders. "With everyone's approval, I request the African Union Chairperson to take his seat as a permanent G20 member," PM Modi said. African Union's inclusion in G20 was among India's key priorities in the G20 summit under its presidency. African Union's inclusion in G20 grouping was proposed by PM Modi in June this year. At the beginning of his speech, PM Modi expressed his condolences over the loss of lives due to an earthquake in Morocco. "Before we start the proceedings of G20, I want to express my condolences over the loss of lives due to an earthquake in Morocco. We pray that all injured recover at the earliest. India is ready to offer all possible assistance to Morocco in this difficult time." PM Modi noted that the world has faced a new challenge of trust deficit after the COVID-19. He referred to conflict between Ukraine and Russia and said the war had deepened the trust deficit further. "If we can defeat a pandemic like COVID, we can also win over the challenge of this trust deficit. Today, as the President of the G20, India calls upon the entire world to transform this global trust deficit into trust and confidence. This is the time for all of us to move together," he said. "In this time, the mantra of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas' can be the torch bearer for us. Be it the divide between North and South, the distance between East and West, management of food and fuel, terrorism, cyber security, health, energy or water security, we will have to move towards a solid solution to this for future generations." Ahead of G20 Summit, PM Modi welcomed world leaders, including US President <keyword id="99719" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="joe-biden" source="Orion">Joe Biden</keyword>, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, UK PM <keyword id="221875" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="rishi-sunak" source="Orion">Rishi Sunak</keyword>, and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

The theme of this year's G20 Summit, which is taking place under India's presidency is "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" or "One Earth, One Family, One Future."

Japan hit by 7.2 magnitude earthquake, tsunami advisory issued

As if Nepal hadn’t suffer enough damage in the <keyword id="6362774" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="earthquake">earthquake</keyword> that rattled the country on April 25, another earthquake has hit the country today. 
 
This time magnitude was 7.4 as per the US Geological Survey. The epicentre was 83 km east of Kathmandu, and the depth measured on the Richter scale is 19km. 
 
Even as the death toll in the earthquake two weeks ago had crossed the 7,000 mark, this is going to be a huge worry for Nepal which is still reeling from the after effects of the devastation caused. 
 
What would be the serious cause of concern this time around would be all the buildings that had been physically rattled by the first earthquake but were still standing. While a lot of Nepal was raised to the ground in the previous earthquake that struck two weeks ago, this would only throw a darker shadow on the relief work that is ongoing as well as the thousands of people stranded out in the open, in overcrowded relief camps. 
 
Today’s earthquake could easily add a few hundreds if not more to the already overflowing relief camp of Nepal, giving the questionable safety point of the building in the country. The 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck the Himalayan country on April 25, killed over 8000 people and injuring 17,800. 
 
The other major cause of concern would be deteriorating health conditions in these relief camps which are already feeling the pressure of having to cater to the thousands already residing over the last two weeks. 
 
Earlier, it was pegged that it will take 2 billion dollars to rebuild Nepal after the first earthquake had struck. Now, this could very well shoot those estimates much higher. 
 
The tremors of the earthquake were also felt in North India including West Bengal and Bihar.

The earthquake hit at 8:45 am today morning and measured 6.0 on the richter scale according to India’s National Center for Seismology. But there’s no threat of a tsunami. The Indian National Center for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) stated that the earthquake shouldn’t result in a tsunami because it didn’t result in a rise in sea levels. Officials have also reported that there were no immediate reports of loss of life or even damage to property. But, the localities did feel the tremors. Prone to <keyword id="792115" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="seismic-activity">seismic activity</keyword> The Andaman and Nicobar islands are prone to seismic activity. It was even witness to <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/12-earthquakes-jolt-andaman-nicobar-islands-in-24-hrs/">12 earthquakes</a> over the span of 24 hours on November 9, 2015 — all going measuring 5 or more on the richter scale. The largest earthquake recorded in the area was in December 2005 that hit the North Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal. The Andaman and Nicobar were the worst hit territory in India reporting a loss of 4,486 people. This is all because it’s located near the boundary of the Indian plate and the Burmese microplate marked by the Andaman Trench. The north-east end of Port Blair is also home to the only volcanoes in India — the Barren Island Volcano and Narcondam.

6.0 magnitude earthquake hits India’s Nicobar Islands, no tsunami risk reported

An <keyword id="6362774" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="earthquake">earthquake</keyword> measuring 7.5 magnitude struck 80 km (50 miles) east of Pokhara in <keyword id="12266" type="COUNTRY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Nepal">Nepal</keyword> on Saturday, about half way between the town and the capital <keyword id="18568" type="COMPANY" weightage="80" keywordseo="kathmandu">Kathmandu</keyword>. Tremors have been felt right across the entire northern Indian belt, from Rajasthan to the states in the north east. The quake was 31 km (19 miles) deep. 
 
This is the second largest earthquake to rock the region since 1934, when an earthquake measuring over 8 on the Richter scale, nearly wiped out the entire area. Though slightly lesser in magnitude, today’s earthquake, given it is continental in nature, is expected to create widespread devastation in and around the epicentre. 
 So strong has been its impact, that several strong after shocks have been felt even as far as <keyword id="66" type="COMPANY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Delhi">Delhi</keyword> NCR since then. The impact in Delhi around the first earthquake was around 5 on the richter scale. The aftershock that followed the massive earthquake measured 6.6 on the richter scale at the epicentre in Nepal. Several pictures from Kathmandu showing damaged and destroyed buildings have already started pouring in. 
 
The Indian Meteorological Department has issued an alert for the entire region that has felt the tremors in India including the national capital region, stating people to stay away from concrete structures once aftershocks begin, given an earthquake of this magnitude has the power of damaging even the strongest of buildings. 
 
What is a big cause of concern however is the level of preparedness that one can expect in the national capital region, given it falls in Earthquake Zone 4, or the second most dangerous geographical zone for earthquakes in India, followed only by the entire Himalayan belt, which is the most earthquake prone area in India (Zone 5).
