G20 Summit 2014: What happened when Modi visits Brisbane

Brisbane, Nov 15:

is in Brisbane, Australia for a crucial

and the second lap of his foreign tour after Myanmar. However, he sat in discussion with G20 members. It was no polling pitch when he cleared all doubts about the present government's stance on black money recovery from foreign bank accounts.

He said,"repatriation of black money was a key priority for the government". Further, he called for "close coordination" on achieving that objective at a meeting of the five-nation BRICS group, just hours ahead of the G20 summit in Brisbane in Australia.
