The 5th BRICS Summit was held between 25th and 27th March 2013 in Durban, South Africa. This is a comprehensive report from the Indian point of view. Two crucial decisions were taken to set up a BRICS development Bank and a Contingency Reserve Arrangement. Durban is also of symbolic significance to India since Mahatma Gandhi started his struggle against white supremacy from here. The report visits the railway station where he was thrown off a first class compartment, despite having a valid ticket. It also gives a viewer a glimpse of the great African Lion.
