Vivek Sharma, New Delhi, India: New Delhi is set to host the 27th World Korea Forum 2026 from 18 to 20 August 2026, bringing together academics, policymakers, diplomats, geopolitical experts, business representatives and opinion leaders from India, South Korea and several other countries for discussions on the rapidly changing global order.

Organised by the Korea Global Foundation and co-hosted with the University of Delhi, the three-day forum seeks to provide a platform for examining contemporary geopolitical, geoeconomic and cultural transformations and exploring future-oriented cooperation, coexistence, peace and prosperity. According to the organisers, the choice of New Delhi reflects India's growing significance in global affairs. The forum's background material describes India as a major power across economics, development, military affairs, geography, population, culture, history and diaspora, with the Indian diaspora also playing an influential role across several regions.

The forum comes at a time when strategic competition in the Indo-Pacific is intensifying, with major powers and regional countries increasingly focusing on economic, security and geopolitical interests in the region. The organisers highlight India's Act East Policy, its engagement with the Indo-Pacific and its role in platforms associated with the Global South, BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation as important elements of the changing regional landscape.

The central discussions of the forum will cover a broad range of subjects, including Korea-India relations, the Indo-Pacific, the Korean Peninsula, international security, the global economy, multilateralism, the Global South, diaspora, culture and future international cooperation.

The opening sessions are scheduled to address the changing geopolitical order and India's role in the emerging international environment. The programme includes discussions on the status of Korea-China-Japan studies and education in India, India's future development, Korea-India relations and strategic solidarity in the Indo-Pacific era. It also features discussions on strengthening Korea-India diplomatic and economic partnerships in an era of multipolarity.

The forum will also devote substantial attention to the Korean Peninsula and security environment in Northeast Asia. Sessions will examine denuclearisation, nuclear self-reliance, inter-Korean relations, US-DPRK relations, North Korea's relations with China and Russia, and India's interests and strategic role on the Korean Peninsula.

Another major area of discussion will be peace, reconciliation and Korean unification. Speakers are scheduled to examine the role of multilateral groups and the Global South, India's perspective on Korean unification, economic engagement between the two Koreas, common security and the prospects for peace on the Korean Peninsula.

The international dimension of the forum will extend beyond the Korean Peninsula. Sessions will explore the evolving international order, the role of great and middle powers in the Indo-Pacific, India's and China's perspectives on global changes, relations between India, the EU and emerging powers, and possible reforms to global governance mechanisms. Scholars and experts from countries including South Korea, India, China, Russia, Italy, Spain, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and the United Kingdom are listed in the programme.

Economic cooperation will form another important component. Discussions will focus on economic security, fair trade, the political economy of BRICS and the Global South, Korea-India economic cooperation in the Indo-Pacific era, ASEAN political economy, and economic cooperation involving Russia and the DPRK.

The forum will also highlight the contribution of the Korean community and diaspora. Sessions will examine the Korean community in India and its economic and cultural contributions, the meaning and influence of diaspora in a global era, Korean diaspora literature, Indian diaspora and transnationalism, diasporic Koreans and their ethnic homeland, and Korean communities in Central Asia.

Culture and intellectual exchange will provide another dimension to the programme. Sessions include discussions on Rabindranath Tagore, Indian philosophy, culture and civilisation, K-Culture and K-Philosophy, migration and South-South cooperation, and the Gandhi-Nehru political philosophy framework.

The organisers describe the New Delhi forum as an effort to understand a changing world through geopolitical, geoeconomic and cultural perspectives while encouraging dialogue and cooperation among global opinion leaders. The broader objective is to share the vitality of changing societies and contribute towards a common vision for peace, stability and prosperity in world politics, diplomacy, military affairs, economy, technology, culture and diaspora affairs.

The 27th World Korea Forum in New Delhi is therefore expected to provide a significant platform for India-Korea dialogue and wider international exchange, while seeking to build bridges of public diplomacy and diaspora cooperation during a period of major global transition.

गाजियाबाद: गाजियाबाद विकास प्राधिकरण (GDA) में कथित भ्रष्टाचार और रिश्वतखोरी का मामला लगातार गंभीर होता जा रहा है। आम नागरिकों, बिल्डरों और प्रॉपर्टी से जुड़े लोगों का आरोप है कि प्राधिकरण में बिना “चढ़ावे” के कोई भी फाइल आगे नहीं बढ़ती। हालात इतने खराब बताए जा रहे हैं कि यदि कोई व्यक्ति रिश्वत देने से मना कर दे, तो उसकी फाइल महीनों तक दबाकर रख दी जाती है और उसे बार-बार दफ्तरों के चक्कर लगाने पर मजबूर किया जाता है।

सूत्रों के मुताबिक नक्शा पास कराने, अवैध निर्माण मामलों में राहत दिलाने, कंप्लीशन सर्टिफिकेट जारी कराने, जमीन से जुड़े दस्तावेजों और अन्य प्रशासनिक कार्यों के नाम पर खुलेआम पैसों की मांग की जाती है। आरोप यह भी हैं कि विभाग के कुछ निचले स्तर के अधिकारियों और कर्मचारियों ने अलग-अलग कार्यों के लिए “रेट लिस्ट” तक तय कर रखी है। कई लोग डर और प्रताड़ना के कारण खुलकर सामने नहीं आ पा रहे, लेकिन अंदरखाने भ्रष्टाचार की चर्चाएं जोरों पर हैं।

विशेष रूप से गाजियाबाद के इंदिरापुरम क्षेत्र में ऐसे मामलों ने अब तूल पकड़ना शुरू कर दिया है। स्थानीय लोगों का आरोप है कि निर्माण, नक्शा स्वीकृति और संपत्ति से जुड़े मामलों में कथित तौर पर भारी स्तर पर उगाही की जा रही है। कई नागरिकों का कहना है कि बिना पैसे दिए सामान्य प्रशासनिक कार्य तक समय पर नहीं किए जाते, जिससे लोगों में भारी नाराजगी है।

इतना ही नहीं, कुछ लोगों ने आरोप लगाया है कि जब कथित रूप से मांगी गई रकम नहीं दी जाती, तब संबंधित कर्मचारी या बिचौलिए फोन पर अभद्र भाषा, गाली-गलौज और धमकी भरे अंदाज में बात कर लोगों को डराने और मानसिक दबाव बनाने का प्रयास करते हैं। इससे आम नागरिकों में भय और असुरक्षा का माहौल पैदा हो रहा है।

स्थानीय नागरिकों का कहना है कि भ्रष्टाचार की शिकायतें कई बार उच्च अधिकारियों तक पहुंचाई गईं, लेकिन कार्रवाई के बजाय मामलों को दबा दिया जाता है। इससे रिश्वतखोर कर्मचारियों के हौसले इतने बढ़ गए हैं कि उन्हें अब न कानून का डर दिखाई देता है और न ही शासन-प्रशासन का भय।

हाल ही में दिल्ली नगर निगम (MCD) के एक डिप्टी कमिश्नर समेत कई अधिकारियों को CBI द्वारा रिश्वत लेते हुए रंगे हाथ गिरफ्तार किए जाने के बाद गाजियाबाद में भी चर्चाएं तेज हो गई हैं। लोगों का कहना है कि यदि केंद्रीय एजेंसियां निष्पक्ष जांच करें तो GDA में भी बड़े स्तर पर भ्रष्टाचार का खुलासा हो सकता है। चर्चा यह भी है कि कुछ अधिकारी सत्ता और राजनीतिक संरक्षण के भरोसे खुलेआम उगाही में लगे हुए हैं।

सबसे बड़ा सवाल यह उठ रहा है कि मुख्यमंत्री योगी आदित्यनाथ की भ्रष्टाचार के खिलाफ “जीरो टॉलरेंस” नीति के बावजूद आखिर गाजियाबाद में यह खेल किसके संरक्षण में चल रहा है? क्या संबंधित अधिकारियों को सरकार और कानून का कोई भय नहीं रह गया है?

Vivek Sharma, New Delhi, India, April 20, 2026: India and South Korea have taken a significant step toward enhancing their bilateral ties, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi and South Korean President Lee Jae-myung unveiled a comprehensive roadmap to strengthen cooperation across trade, technology, and key strategic sectors. The announcements were made during President Lee’s first visit to India after assuming office, following delegation-level discussions in New Delhi.

During a joint press statement, both leaders witnessed the exchange of several Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs). These agreements indicate a wide-ranging effort to enhance economic engagement and deepen cooperation in both emerging and established sectors.

Prime Minister Modi welcomed President Lee, describing his life as “an inspiring example of struggle, service, and dedication,” and stated that the visit represents an important step in further reinforcing the strategic partnership between the two democracies. Highlighting shared democratic values, Modi noted that the relationship is progressing from a trusted partnership toward a futuristic strategic alliance.

Trade Expansion and CEPA Upgrade

A major outcome of the summit was the decision to substantially increase bilateral trade. Both nations have set a goal to raise trade to $50 billion by 2030, nearly doubling the present volume of around $25–27 billion. To achieve this, the leaders agreed to upgrade the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) within the coming year to better reflect evolving global trade trends.

Industrial Cooperation and Investment Boost

To further enhance industrial ties, Prime Minister Modi announced plans to develop dedicated Korean industrial townships in India. These townships are intended to support the entry and growth of South Korean companies, especially small and medium enterprises, by offering better infrastructure and regulatory assistance.

An Industrial Cooperation Committee will also be set up as a ministerial platform to strengthen business engagement and promote trade and investment between the two countries.

Financial and Economic Mechanisms

To support expanding economic relations, both sides announced the establishment of new institutional mechanisms. The India-Korea Financial Forum will help ensure smoother capital movement and boost investment partnerships, while an Economic Security Dialogue will focus on critical technologies and supply chain resilience.

Additionally, discussions were held on simplifying regulatory processes for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), enabling smoother industrial cooperation and business activities.

India-Korea Digital Bridge

A key highlight of the summit was the launch of the “India-Korea Digital Bridge,” a long-term initiative aimed at strengthening cooperation in advanced technology sectors such as artificial intelligence, semiconductors, and information technology.

This initiative reflects the shared vision of both nations to build resilient supply chains and future-ready industries. Collaboration in areas like chip manufacturing, advanced technologies, and innovation ecosystems is expected to play a significant role in shaping the partnership.

Expanding Cultural and People-to-People Ties

Beyond economic and technological engagement, both leaders emphasised the importance of cultural and people-to-people connections. They noted the increasing popularity of Korean culture in India and identified films, animation, gaming, and entertainment as growing areas of engagement.

On cultural ties, the Prime Minister remarked, “India and Korea share cultural ties dating back thousands of years. The story of Princess Suriratna of Ayodhya and King Kim Suro of Korea from 2,000 years ago is our shared heritage.” He added, “Today, K-Pop and K-Dramas are becoming very popular in India. Similarly, the recognition of Indian cinema and culture is growing in Korea. We are delighted that President Lee himself is a fan of Indian cinema. To strengthen this cultural connect, we will organize the India-Korea Friendship Festival in 2028.”

Quoting Rabindranath Tagore, the Prime Minister concluded, “Nearly 100 years ago, India’s great poet, Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, called Korea the ‘Lamp of the East.’ Today, Korea is a vital partner in realizing our resolve for a ‘Viksit Bharat 2047’ (Developed India 2047). Let us, through our partnership, pave the way for the progress and prosperity of both our countries and the entire world.”

Global and Strategic Cooperation

The leaders also exchanged views on regional and global developments, underlining the importance of stability and cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region. They agreed to deepen collaboration in areas such as green energy, critical technologies, and supply chain security.

Prime Minister Modi welcomed South Korea’s participation in global initiatives such as the International Solar Alliance and the Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative, highlighting a shared commitment to sustainable development and environmental responsibility.

Vision for the Future

President Lee appreciated India’s development progress and its long-term growth vision, while both leaders reaffirmed their commitment to building a forward-looking partnership. The visit, the first by a South Korean president to India in over eight years, is being regarded as a major milestone in bilateral relations.

The summit concluded with Prime Minister Modi accepting an invitation to visit South Korea in the near future, indicating continued high-level engagement between the two nations.

With expanded engagement across economic, technological, cultural, and strategic domains, India and South Korea have laid the groundwork for a deeper and more comprehensive partnership in the coming years.

Key Insights from Panelists
During the session, the experts shared valuable insights on the growing impact of artificial intelligence, digital transformation, and technological advancements in the media industry. Aman Chopra emphasized the need for journalists to embrace AI as a tool rather than a threat: “AI is reshaping newsrooms by automating routine tasks like transcription and data analysis, but human empathy, investigative grit, and storytelling will always define great journalism. Aspiring anchors must master tech to stay ahead—learn coding basics and AI ethics today for tomorrow’s prime time.”
Vipin Gaur highlighted adaptability and ethical standards: “In the AI era, media professionals must prioritize verifiable facts over viral content. Technology opens global doors for Indian journalists, but success lies in blending traditional values with digital skills like multimedia production and audience analytics. Our associations are pushing for training programs to equip the next generation.”
They emphasized that while technology is transforming journalism, the core values of ethical reporting, creativity, critical thinking, and adaptability remain essential for aspiring media professionals.

Vivek Sharma, New Delhi, January 15, 2026 — Strengthening the growing educational partnership between India and the Republic of Korea, the Korea Education Centre was officially inaugurated in New Delhi on Thursday, January 15. The opening marks a significant step in promoting Korean language education and enhancing academic cooperation between the two countries under their established “Special Strategic Partnership.”

The Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea, led by Minister Choi Gyo Jin, announced the formal opening of the Korea Education Centre with the objective of strengthening educational services for overseas Koreans and expanding international educational cooperation. The Centre has been established as an overseas educational institution under the Overseas Koreans Education Act, in consultation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Korea Education Centre focuses on identity education and lifelong learning for overseas Koreans, while also serving as a hub for Korean language education and international student attraction. Since the establishment of the first Korea Education Centre in Japan in the 1960s, the network has expanded to 47 centres across 22 countries worldwide.

In response to increasing globalization, the Ministry of Education has steadily expanded both the number and roles of Korea Education Centres. Following the launch of the “Study Korea 300K Project” in August 2023, these centres have been further strengthened as public platforms for supporting international students seeking education in Korea and for promoting Korean language education in strategically important countries. Through this initiative, the Ministry aims to stimulate demand for studying in Korea and support the long-term settlement of international students.

Currently, 11 Korea Education Centres globally are assigned specific international student attraction functions, including centres in Los Angeles, Osaka, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Tashkent, Almaty, Thailand, Seattle, Mexico, Indonesia, and India.

At present, the Korea Education Centre network comprises 47 centres across 22 countries, with regional distribution as follows: Japan (15), North America and Latin America (13), Russia and CIS countries (7), Southeast Asia (6), and Europe and Oceania (6).

India, the world’s most populous country, has long-standing ties with Korea, including medical support and peace mediation efforts during World War periods. Since 2015, when the two nations elevated their relationship to a Special Strategic Partnership, educational exchanges and cooperation have continued to expand.

The opening ceremony in New Delhi was attended by a delegation from the Korean Ministry of Education, including Mr. Seol Sehun, Director General of Planning and Coordination. Also present were Mr. Lee Seong Ho, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to India, Mr. Ravikesh, Registrar of Jawaharlal Nehru University, and Mr. Lee Kwang Il, Chairman of the Korean Association in India.

More than 120,000 overseas Koreans currently reside in India and are actively engaged in sectors such as education, industry, culture, and research, serving as an important bridge between the two nations. With growing interest in Korea driven by the Korean Wave, the Korea Education Centre in India plans to focus on promoting Korean language education and attracting Indian students to pursue higher education in Korea.

Commenting on the occasion, Education Minister Choi Gyo Jin stated, “The role of the Korea Education Centre in India should be greatly strengthened in line with Korea’s elevated economic and cultural status in the international community and the global education powerhouse strategy aimed at attracting 300,000 international students.”
