Since joining, New Delhi has made a substantial contribution to this organisation by raising certain critical concerns relating to connectivity, transportation, regional security, and economic growth and development.

For 2022–2023, India will be the SCO's chair. In this episode of VIF podcast, India's SCO presidency and its implications for India-Central Asia connectivity initiatives will be highlighted by Amb.
