 With the BRICS grouping deciding to include six new nations under its fold from January next year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that it gives a message to all such fora to transform with changing times.

Speaking at the BRICS summit, Modi said he was confident that “we would be able to give new dynamism to BRICS by working with new member countries of the grouping”.

He said that India has historic ties with all the six new members of BRICS, namely Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
