    The meeting concluded on Thursday.

    “Discussion on SFWD work plan comprising three identified priority areas of mechanisms for mobilisation of timely and adequate resources for climate finance; enabling finance for the Sustainable Development Goals; and capacity building of the ecosystem for financing toward sustainable development were held in the meeting,” according to a release.

    The meeting held on March 21-23 was attended by 93 delegates from G20 member countries, 10 invitee countries and 18 international organisations, including Asian Development Bank and United Nations Development Programme, among others.

    “Keeping up with a collaborative spirit and arriving at a consensus, members agreed upon the way forward for important deliverables for the year that include a set of options for mobilising financial resources for climate action, developing an analytical framework for SDG-aligned finance and the G20 Sustainable Finance Technical Assistance Action Plan (TAAP),” the release said.

    During the plenary sessions, members’ discussions and interventions were held on the three priority areas of the SFWG.

    On the priority of mobilising finance for climate action, the G20 members agreed that MDBs play an important role in catalysing private finance and that they must strengthen this role.

    “The catalytic role of the public sector was also stressed. The importance of creating an enabling environment in scaling up finance for climate action was underscored,” the release said.

    On financing the SDGs, the members deliberated upon developing an analytical framework for SDG-aligned finance with discussions on best policies and approaches for scaling up wider adoption of social impact investment instruments and necessary frameworks to incorporate nature-related risks and opportunities into investment decisions of financial institutions and companies.

    SFWG is working to develop a G20 Technical Assistance Action Plan that would include the identification and analysis of existing capacity-building activities and identifying the existing sustainable finance skill gaps.

    “There were discussions on how various stakeholders can work together to develop capacity-building programmes that effectively address the unique needs of different groups while fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing in sustainable finance,” the release noted.

    The delegates also participated in local sightseeing, such as a visit to the City Palace to witness the magnificent light and sound show, boat rides on the banks of lake Pichola along with several cultural programmes displaying the cultural heritage of Rajasthan.

  • Chhattisgarh: 4 held over foot march in support of Amritpal Singh in Raipur

    Chhattisgarh: 4 held over foot march in support of Amritpal Singh in Raipur

    [ad_1]

    Raipur: Four persons were arrested on Thursday, a day after a rally was taken out in Chhattisgarh’s capital Raipur by a group of people allegedly in support of wanted pro-Khalistan preacher Amritpal Singh, an official said.

    Based on the examination of CCTV footage and video clips of the statements given by people involved in the rally, a first information report (FIR) was registered at Civil Lines police station here, Raipur Senior Superintendent of Police Prasant Agrawal told PTI.

    Four Raipur residents, identified as Diler Singh Randhawa (46), Manindarjeet Singh alias Mintu Sandhu (40), Harinder Singh Khalsa (44) and Harpreet Singh Randhawa alias Chintu (42), were arrested for allegedly taking out a foot march in support of Amritpal Singh, he said.

    The four have been booked under Indian Penal Code sections 147 (punishment for rioting), 153A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc., and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) and 505(1)(b) (with intent to cause, or which is likely to cause, fear or alarm to the public, or to any section of the public whereby any person may be induced to commit an offence against the State or against the public tranquillity), SSP Agrawal said, adding that further investigation is underway.

    Earlier in the day, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel said in the state Assembly that he had ordered police to probe the issue and take action against those found indulging in anti-national activities.

    On Wednesday, a rally was taken out allegedly in support of Amritpal Singh, after which police served notice to the organisers. They were asked to furnish their replies at Civil Lines police station.

    Diler Singh Randhawa, a member of Baba Budha Saheb Committee, who was part of the rally, had told media persons that Amritpal Singh was innocent. He accused the Punjab government of falsely implicating him.

    Diler Singh claimed Amritpal Singh was fighting against addiction and was uniting youth through religion.

    However, a video of Diler Singh, which was shared by police on Thursday, showed him claiming he had been misreported and that some persons were spreading propaganda that the rally was taken out in support of Khalistan.

    He said the rally was held against the “illegal” action being taken against Sikhs in Punjab.

    “We live in Chhattisgarh and love the people of Chhattisgarh. We respect every religion. We don’t want Khalistan and have nothing to do with it. We only talk about Sikhism and we raise our voice for Sikhs. It is our responsibility and right to raise the issue of our community,” he added.

    Police action began in Punjab last week against radical preacher Amritpal Singh, who heads Waaris Punjab De’ organisation, leading to several arrests, though he continues to remain elusive.
