Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's much-awaited speech at the Allphones Arena in Sydney, the Ministry of External Affairs on Monday termed the former's exhaustive engagements in Australia a part of multi-layered diplomacy.
"Following the G-20, we immediately switched on to another mode. What is being practiced is called multi-layered diplomacy. One layer is in terms of international engagements at a multi-lateral level. Another layer is engagements of public diplomacy where the Prime Minister yesterday and today is engaged with different sections of the public to spread a common message about his vision of India, about India where he would like others to come and invest," MEA official spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin told ANI here.
He added that government to government discussions will take place tomorrow, which will be the third element in the multi-layer diplomacy.
