This year's edition of the Dialogue assumes special significance as it comes against the backdrop of India's G20 Presidency.
The MEA said over 2,500 participants would be joining the Dialogue in person and the proceedings would reach millions across various digital platforms.
"During the past eight years, the Raisina Dialogue has consistently grown in stature and profile to establish itself as one of the leading global conferences on international affairs," the MEA said.
