British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty also visited the 40-hectare Akshardham Hindu temple in New Delhi on Sunday morning.

Sunak and Murty, both practising Hindus, joined in with Sanskrit singing as they made prayer offerings to a golden statue of Lord Swaminarayan.

PM Modi has announced the end of the summit and formally handed over the G20 presidency to Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva at the closing ceremony of the annual grouping summit held in New Delhi this weekend.

Brazil's President Lula said during its tenure, that the country would work to "build a fair world and a sustainable planet".

As the summit ended, Modi proposed a virtual G20 meeting in November while the presidency still remains with India to "sum up and take stock" of the resolutions of the summit.

While the summit is officially over, leaders are still holding bilateral talks on the sidelines, some are holding meetings with the press and releasing statements.
