"During the sessions of the Summit, I will be exchanging views with the G7 counties, G7 partner countries and guest International Organisations on topical issues such as environment, energy, climate, food security, health, counter-terrorism, gender equality and democracy," Modi said in a statement published on his website.
While in Germany, Modi will also meet with members of the Indian diaspora from across Europe, he said.
The Indian leader will head back home on Tuesday and make a "brief stopover" in the United Arab Emirates' capital of Abu Dhabi the same day to meet with UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and convey personal condolences on the passing of his predecessor, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
The G7 summit will take place from Sunday to Tuesday in the Bavarian castle Schloss Elmau. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who will be chairing the summit as part of Germany's G7 Presidency, has invited Modi to attend along with leaders of Argentina, Indonesia, Senegal and South Africa.
The Group of Seven includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The summit in Germany will also be attended by European Council President Charles Michel and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen as well as delegates of international organizations, including UN Secretary-General Anotnio Guterres who will be joining remotely.
