India’s hosting style at the BRICS Summit 2026 stands out. Foreign delegates attending the 18th BRICS Summit at Delhi’s Bharat Mandapam are being presented with a special ‘goodie bag’ that showcases the culture, flavors, and local products of various Indian states. This special bag includes Sattu and Makhana from Bihar, premium Arabica coffee from Odisha, a block-printed stole from Gujarat, banana chips, and a coffee mug. Additionally, a tote bag featuring an in-built charging port is also being provided. A ‘One District One Product’ exhibition has also been organized at the summit, showcasing unique art and handloom products from across the country.
