G-20 Summit: PM Modi will give this special hammer only to Brazil?
This time india is organizing the G-20 Summit and preparations for this summit to be held in New delhi are
being made for a long time. Many heads of state, including US President Joe Biden, have started arriving since
Thursday. In the G-20 summit, not only many issues will be discussed in 20 countries but india will also
showcase its heritage and culture to the world. During this period many discussions will take place and G-20
rituals will also be followed. Many celebrities are coming to india from G-20, but this time brazil is especially
in discussion.
During this, prime minister Narendra Modi will also hand over a 'Hammer' to the representative of Brazil. In
such a situation, the question is what is the story of this hammer and why will this hammer be given especially
to Brazil. So let us know the answers to these questions and the complete story of this ritual.
What is the story of the hammer?
Actually, every year G-20 countries organize summits in their countries. Every year one country comes next in
order. Like last year indonesia was number one and after that india was number one. In such a situation, the
chairmanship of G-20 keeps getting transferred every year. This year also this presidency will go to another
country for a year and a hammer is used to transfer this presidency. When a prime minister hands over the
gavel to the prime minister of another country, it means that now the presidency has been transferred. In the G-
20 summit, when one country transfers the presidency to another country, first the head of that country
announces it and then hands over the hammer to the incoming host. Then the country that is given the
presidency organizes the next summit. It is considered a symbol of the Presidency and is transferred every year.
For one year, the command of G-20 was in the hands of indonesia and then it came to india and after that now
it will go to another country.
