New Delhi: G20 leaders paid respects to Mahatma Gandhi at his memorial Rajghat on Sunday, including US President Joe Biden, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and UN Secretary-General pAntónio Guterres.

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, IMF head Kristalina Georgieva, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong were amongst the first to reach the venue this morning.

PM Modi welcomed the dignitaries with an 'angvastram' or stole while standing against the backdrop of an image of 'Bapu Kuti'.

After paying tributes to the Mahatma, the leaders will also sign on the 'Peace Wall' at the Leaders' Lounge.
