Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will address the 90th Interpol General Assembly on October 18 at around 1:45 PM at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi. INTERPOL’s 90th General Assembly will be held from 18 to 21 October.

The General Assembly is INTERPOL’s highest governing body and meets once a year to take key decisions related to its operation.
The INTERPOL General Assembly is being held in India after about 25 years – the last time it was held in 1997. India’s proposal to host the 2022 INTERPOL General Assembly in Delhi, coinciding with India’s 75th year of independence, was overwhelmingly accepted by the General Assembly. This event provides an opportunity to showcase the best practices in the Indian law and order system to the world. Union Home Secretary, INTERPOL President Ahmed Naser Al Raisi and Secretary General Mr Jurgen Stock, Director CBI will also be present on the occasion.
