2024 wasn't just a year of elections but a year of reckoning. Dubbed the "super year," it witnessed a global wave of anti-incumbency. From the UK to South Africa, Japan to France, ruling parties, whether left or right, were humbled—or defeated outright.

What does this global rejection of incumbents signify? Do these trends signal a demand for genuine systemic change or simply a cyclical rejection of the status quo?

Back home, following the grand success of the G20 summit in 2023, this year, cracks emerged in its "Neighbourhood First" policy as relations with Myanmar, Nepal, Maldives, Bangladesh, Pakistan, China, and Sri Lanka faltered. Experts suggest a strategic shift may be overdue.

So, how should India's foreign diplomacy and global standing be assessed today? Has its global stature diminished?

In this episode of Geeta's World, our host, Anna Priyadarshini, and the foreign affairs editor at India Today, TV Today Network, Geeta Mohan, discuss!
