Among the chiefs of political parties, BJP President J.P. Nadda, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury and Telugu Desam Party President Chandrababu Naidu also attended the meeting.

Sources privy to the developments said that Yechury and CPI leader D. Raja are learnt to have said in the meeting that India has got the Presidency of the grouping through rotation and it shouldn't be perceived as the government's achievement.

Stalin expressed confidence that Modi will use the G20 Presidency to promote values of peace, non-violence, harmony, and equal justice all over world.

He assured Tamil Nadu's support and cooperation in conducting G20 conferences.
