India's G7 moment, and the questions its own institutions keep dodging

Three pieces of reporting from the same wire on a single morning describe a country asking for a seat at the table of global governance — and a domestic record that does not always back the request.

@france24_en · Telegram

Desk note: The Indian Express on a single morning offered both an editorial advocating a larger Indian role at the G7 and three domestic reports that complicate the picture — a regulator's mea culpa, a consumer-court order, and a price differential that frames India as the Global South's quiet pharmacy. Monexus reads the four pieces together as a single brief, rather than as four separate stories, because the question of what India can credibly export abroad is downstream of the question of what works at home.
