ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS Paper 2 (International Relations / Groupings) with GS Paper 3 (Energy). India's repeated ISA leadership shows its use of climate diplomacy as soft power, backed by the treaty framework and a growing membership. The implication is a stronger voice for the Global South in clean-energy finance. The way forward lies in turning pledges into funded, bankable solar projects and in widening membership beyond sun-rich states.
